G | hads: I personally recommend the Micrsoft Security Essentials which appears to work okay | 03:26 |
G | two advantages to that, 1) You can play the 'Blame Microsoft, not me for suggesting a company you've never heard of', and 2) it works not too bad :) | 03:27 |
hads | Thanks guys, very helpful. A couple others recommeded Microsoft Security Essentials too so I installed that, seems to work. | 07:04 |
