I see. I did go to AVG and they had a free one, and then they also
had a $35 one and a $55 one. A lot of skepticism there. I had
signed up last year for a PC Tools and it erased just a tad, and then
it came with other offers to do a better job. I was disappointed in
the least. I'm sure the service guy erased that to put the Norton
in. Anyway, I don't want something invading my system, I can't deal
with.

I'm sure I have XP Media Center as how could it be the theme on my
monitor? Like I said, I have a little trepidation on which of the
three to choose it offers me when I give the choice for XP Media
Center. There are 3 download's and I don't wish to choose the wrong
one.
