Viruses suck! I had a nasty one on my computer -- I caught it about a week ago and freaked out. Stevie was able to fix it, mostly, but it's still giving me some trouble. (When I've had to restart for the fifth time in a day because your computer froze up that many times, I start fantasizing about kicking it out a twelfth-floor window. Not that my house has twelve floors.) Stevie downloaded some free software for me called SpyBot, and another program called AdAware. They scan your computer for things that web sites have planted on your computer without your knowledge/consent and which are slowing it down and screwing it up. They helped me a lot, but I think I need to run them again, because I'm still having unwanted ads, etc., which are messing with the programs I try to run.
