thanks. I hope it works. If you can get it running without the malicious material on it, I think you'll really like those two programs. I've not had a stitch of trouble since installing them. And one of them, can't remember which, won't let you open a website if it detects stuff you don't want. Blares out the aa-oooga warning sound, a flashing dialogue box with red warning labels pops up. Scared me to death when it first happened. But. I didn't get infected with anything.
