| Please Be Aware! I wanted you guys to be aware of a few trojan viruses that somehow slipped past my Virus scan, and Firewall ...I just spent the past few hours on the phone with Dell, because my anti-virus provider is closed on the weekend...Please be careful!!

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | Oh Mone't - doesn't it just make you so mad ? I'm working on yet another FREE antivirus too - I've recently had problems and had AVG Free Anti Virus installed.... I've used it 3 years and never had a problem till lately. The net just SUCKS lately with all the BS your computer can catch. I'm starting to think the people who make all the programs are also inventing all the viruses and stuff - the net is FULL of sweepers - spy removal tools and virus removal tools - who actually knows where they all come from ? it could be a conspiracy Anyone know of something CHEAP that will help ? |

| Freebies I use are AVG and Spy Subtact. I found these to not interupt or screw up my programs like some others do.

| My laptop had a virus in it--and had the qeek squad out to do some repair work. Grrrrrr! I am on my hubbys desktop now! I hate this thing!!! Unfortunately, my laptop is still out of commision and I am very upset about it! I cant't even open any window on it at all. So, now we have to either send it out or just buy another one. ggggggrrrrrrrr

I wish I knew also, I had my idenity stolen back in April(it was horrible) That time it was my fault. They used my card to buy, cell phones, phone cards etc..they tried to establish residence at my house by getting mail sent in their name here...What saved me was 1, they were using my info in different countries(ie..South Africa, Vietnam, France, and Ireland.) Their names were able to be traced back to real people(HOW STUPID)...I thought everything was cleared up until the mail kept coming...Every other day, I was at the FBI office in Baltimore County, our poor mail man told me the first two times to put return to sender on them..But, I started getting afraid, so I used the FBI fraud number, I got from the card company. I am so grateful, this morning could have been so much worse!!!
