Hello All, Today I found 4 "worms" on my computer. Three of them where from downloads. Since I have not downloaded anything except what Barrett descendants send me, everyone needs to check their computers. I am sure most people have a virus scanner on thier pc. If you don't you can go to PC-Cillin and download a free trial for 30 days. After 30 days it just doesn't work anymore, you don't have to put any information in except your e-mail address. I have been using it for a long time and it is a good program, although I am sure there are some better. http://www.trendmicro.com/ftp/products/pccillin/pcc2003sw101.exe Trend Micro also has a free virus scan on their site. Hugs, Janet
Janet, This will not install if you have McAfee. It wants you to uninstall McAfee first. McAfee has a visual scan that inform you exactly where the attack has come from if any one is interested. Thanks for the heads up I am running another scan now.
