A while ago on the old puter the anti-virus sub ran out and I was advised by some kind bod on here of another free one. I have since got another puter and the anti-virus sub has now run out on this, AND, I cannot remember the name of the free anti-virus I was told to use on the old puter. HELP. Gloria :-((((( |

You need a firewall as well: try Zone Alarm. |

Gloria - you must be on the one you have to pay for. Will bump up a thread where I was helping Sue from Devon reinstall it on her machine. Link and info on that thread. |
