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.

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.

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?
