Default Re: I think I am getting somewhere :)

awesome - thank you - so now how do I best prevent this from happening again? I am obviously worried about surfing the net and emails. Will something like AVG free take care of that or do I need more?? Or do I just use one of these that I have now downloaded??

Thank you

Stay off the net

You yourself are the best protection against this stuff. And yes AVG is a good start. Use MBAM weekly as well.

Question Re: I think I am getting somewhere :)

Well.... I thought all was well.... I was installing AVG free and ran into one of my original problems which is that I get an error message which says that I have some potentially incompatible software and that it recommends that I uninstall it. {CF746002-94FB-101B-8C12-02608C454BFF} I however have no idea what this is. It gives me a choice to skip removing it or to remove it which takes me to add/remove programs.
