<rant>It's Outlook. You read from bottom to top, not the other way around.</rant>
You told them to install a second AV package alongside the first. You're going to kill what performance was left by the malware on the machine. If this person can't keep their machine clean they aren't going to know how to configure two AV products to run nicely side by side if Mcafee and MSE can at all. "It is quick and easy. All you have to do it tell it when and what to scan" You speak as if this is such an easy task? Assuming this is an average adult can't-keep-out-of-trouble user like what I see, they're going to be lost. If you like this person, fix it for them, or call a local shop that sounds knowledgeable and fair and send them there. I don't know if this is rare for this person or not, but for people I know that are completely prone to getting themselves into trouble over and over, I tell them to buy a Mac. -- Mike Gill From: David W.

Yes if you can get on the internet you can find it by googling for Microsoft security essentials download.

If I can get on the net because when I tried last night I couldn't get around all the pop ups ( I will get those pics to you asap LOL) So does that mean someone has been looking at that stuff or is that just the possible virus causing that to pop up ? From: David McSpadden Sent: Tuesday, October 27, 2009 10:19 AM To: xx Subject: RE: Home Computer I think you should send me the naughty pictures for an objective opinion. Also, I think you should download Microsoft's Free Security Essentials virsus/spyware scanner. It is quick and easy. All you have to do it tell it when and what to scan. That might find something your Mcafee doesn't. From: xx Sent: Tuesday, October 27, 2009 10:11 AM To: David McSpadden Subject: Home Computer Hi It's me again... I think my computer has issues again I have been getting pop ups telling me my computer could be infected but it wasn't from Mcafee so I ignored it then mcafee would pop up and say it blocked a trojen so I thought I was ok but last night when I tried to get into my email naughty pics poped up????? So I thought I would run a full scan but couldn't get into mcafee.
