if you did install a firewall?

just windows firefall

*firewall

i think i know what did it...it was a little app a friend had given me

i ran 3-4 different anti-virus and anti-spyware tools...all of them found and eliminated stuff, but I was still having some issues so

I decided to just start over

Dang. Isn't that aggravating?

big time! plus i'm wasting valuable free time...but i'd rather start fresh

I have to say too that Plurking from another machine makes the time pass quickly while Windows reinstalls

stay away from those porn sites

I use Comodo firewall, because I find that it's better than Windows FW. AVG and Spyware Terminator also help.

thanks drdollars

syktek we'll let's not go too far

roger that!!!

man! I'm sorry. that's quite annoying, though I've had to do similar. hopefully it goes quickly.
