I just tried this program out, and wanted to share it with you guys. Norton sucks, it doesnt even find and fix problems. So I tried this avast anti-virus out. I found, and deleted 174 infected files with it (including a couple windows system files). The pc is running a hell of a lot better, its almost like I have DSL compared to before. I just got this...and it could suck after a while, but so far I figured Id let you guys know about it because I think its awesome. www.avast.com/eng/download/programs/avast_4_home_downloa.htmlClick the Download for Avast 4 home - English version.

Before you download this, make sure you have some free time. After its done loading, let it restart the computer. Before fully logging back in, it will show up the virus protect screen. Let it run the program..and each time it finds a infected file press 1 to delete it. This took me about 30 mins to run the program. But it was well worth it.
I got rid of 174 infected files. Some of which had Trojon, Korgo, Bobax, Worms and anything else you can think of.

Ok I just tried to go to my mail, and it wouldnt work. It has an option to disable mail protection and I tried it but still had problems. Most of the problem was with the computer not showing the link right (like it had been doing before)...but I figured id warn you if you do decide to dl this. This is the only thing I found wrong with it....and thats mostly my pc + the anti-virus working too good lol.

It wouldn't let you go to Outlook or Yahoo?

Nope, I tried all emails. Wouldnt load yahoo, msn or anything that had to do with email. I went ahead and uninstalled it. Left it on my pc so i can reinstall to get rid of virus's every couple of weeks since it does work good...but im gonna leave it uninstalled so I can check mail.
