On Vista its really easy to delete your Recycle Bin from your desktop. Right click on the desktop and I believe its under personal setting or something like that. The comp im on right now is XP or I would know for sure.

IE runs faster with Vista than Firefox does atleast it does on my Dell.

Delete them and see what transpires.

Maybe the DB toolbar is the problem all together.

Hmmm...thought I would've gotten a different reaction for knocking the toolbar.

bow2no1 · #39 01-25-2009, 06:23 PM

this is the places i go,
yahoo mail
Dieselbombers
1100f.net
ebay
craigslist
paypal
newenglandturbodieselpower
plowsite

thats pretty much it.
i dunno where it came from. in the last year i have owned my comp never had any problembs until now.

i bought AVG at walmart today. has a 2 year license

so far it seems to have worked knock on wood

ok thats the closet to knock on wood

Hmmm....

maybe it's not you who is visiting the Pron sites!

in the future the place to go for free stuff is filehippo.com for stuff like avg, ad aware... both free to download. I had the same bug yesterday, ad aware seemed to have the updates needed to get rid of it, and avg most likely would have gotten it by mid day.

bow2no1 · #42 01-26-2009, 07:40 AM

your probably right..
i mentioned AD-Aware he said it would probably work. but he was really pushing avg.

RAM CR 24V · #43 01-26-2009, 10:10 AM

Maybe your anti-virus was expired and you didn't know. You can't even surf the internet for 5 minutes and your already infected with several virus, worm, and trojans.

bow2no1 · #44 01-26-2009, 10:35 AM

i never had one, i don't think. just what came on my comp. windows defender i think and free trial of norton

i had to uninstall it all before downloading AVG.
brings me to a question.
the only one i couldn't find was windows defender to uninstall.
everything seems ok. should i still uninstall it or not worry about it?

mikmaze · #45 02-01-2009, 10:21 AM

fughetabodit... defender is a ms product, safe to keep it and avg at the same time.
