Re: Help an old guy out
 

There is also a free virus scan that I found,
it has found stuff that our corporate scanner missed.
I used it to clean up my wifes computer and it was amazing.

Here is a link:

Only problem is, twice a month I get an e-mail asking me to buy a product.
I just delete em, along with the other junk mail.

There is a trick,
the scan will clean viruses and will generate a report
of questionable files.
Print the report and then you can delete the questionables manually.

Just talked with the computer guru CEO here and she said we ran Adware here but we had more problems because it was conflicting with McAfee and screwed up the computer. Any of you guys running it with McAfee?

I use to run McAfee and I did not like it!! Same thing with Norton they take up way to much resources!!

I use a free anti virus called Avast, works great and has take a few things that McAfee did not!! CB is also using a free virus, but I am not sure if it is the same one? Also with out problems for years!

But when I was using McAfee I did not have any problem with Ad ware at all.
