dangerous software

[Fred (FL)]

John Palmar -

Short of going out and buying some expensive
cumbersome "security program", I'd download several
of the very good freebee security programs, such as:

   "Spybot"C:\Program Files\Lavasoft\Ad-Aware SE
   
   "Ad-Aware.exe" - Search & Destroy"

I run SPYBOT and AD-AWARE about once a week.  They
constantly put out security updates, free.

Microsoft XP also has a free, quite good SECURITY
FIREWALL program they just came out with.  It works
especially well, and is a free download too.  I
can't remember the name of theirs.  I have that
one on my PC at home.  Not this laptop.

Good Luck
Fred

a friend of mine with a young teen aged daughter that uses IM pgms a lot.
Mentioned to me he had to use AVG's Anti-Spyware and Anti-Rootkit to remove some
things not caught by SpyBot or Ad-Aware on her computer.
I can vouch for AVG's Anti-Virus pgm as a good one. All of them are free.

In the free version, updates are automagically downloaded each day at the time
you set them to do so. Or it can be done manually if u wish.
