I'm just here to have fun at other peoples expense and you want to ruin it.

Y'know, I think (hopefully, at least) you were being humorous. I hope so at least. I do my dead level best to keep my computer protected from crap. And yep, I said crap. I don't open email attachments, I don't click on just any link even here on the forum, I don't go to sites I don't feel confident in and I'd love to know where you find that funny, especially at my expense.

I'm disabled in that I have extreme limited mobility (broke it in 1967, thankfully am not a quadriplegic) in being able to turn my neck. I also am recovering from my shoulder 'ball' being broken completely off of the long bone that goes down to my elbow.

You have more in common with the person who crashed the military funeral than you do a stand-up comic.

Continue to make fun, it says more about you than it does about anyone else.

I also suggest Spybot -search & destroy.


It's free and works well.

Once you get your PC cleaned up, create a limited user that you can safely surf the net with. Spyware does not become a problem when it does not have permission to install.

Start > Control Panel > User Accounts > Create Account > Limited.

Yes, it was a lame attempt at humor. I use the free virus programs (Ad-aware and Spybot and Spyblaster) I keep them updated. Every so often I do a full scan from trend-micro called housecall. There are also free firewalls to be had. ZoneAlarm is one of them. Keep doing what you are doing and you should be fine.
