I just finished installling the free version of AdAware and ran it. Found 371
files and i
quarintined them.
I'll try the spybot one next.
Thanks for the recomendations. I was just a bit worried that i might DL
something other
than a free
program from the net.IYKWIM
BTW this is the first time in 2-3 days my HD is not running a mile a minute.:-)
Thanks again
Dave
