So far so good around here. I'm bad about anti-virus stuff... I have Norton but let the updates expire because they pissed me off with their renewal process. Instead of giving you a web address they give you a phone number... that you have to call at your expense. Puh-leeze.
As for all the other machinations... too frustrating. If the truth be known, I hate these machines. I just want to fire the sucker up... type my little messages and email... then go on with my life. Dinking around with this crap with my limited knowledge is not my idea of fun.
