I knew he was about 50 miles north and 200' above sea level so wasn't worried about flooding but worried about the wind.

Computer problems continue. My ISP had to disconnect McAfee so I could get on line. Apparently, McAfee is determined I won't get a virus and they are insuring that by not allowing me to get on the Internet.

I think I should deep six mcAfee and go back to AVG. Anyone else have an opinion?

FWIW, I agree with you. I have a private pet theory, too, which goes that some of the viruses are put out by people within the antivirus companies themselves. Then, the viruses are “found” by the companies thereby proving that they are needed to protect against these attacks. /cynicism

Bev, do you know if Microsoft updated your system recently with a new security patch?

I can only speak for myself and xp, but about 1 month ago they updated my computer and I was not able to get on due to the update conflicting with AVG.

I googled and found out that if I removed the recent update I could turn AVG on and connect to the internet.

I have since turned off automatic update with Microsoft. I get a warning to upgrade and I decide to or not.

Don’t ask me...I want to take a sledge hammer to my computer.

I found that Microsoft updates conflict with Zone Alarm, too.
