Just Me, Hi. Totally overwhelmed by your generous and full of complexities/extensive crash course to my free virus question. You are correct is saying I must not rely on one virus scan tool.

I am embarrassed despite your generousity to inform you that I have zero knowledge or comprehension of how I could possibly proceed to use such wisdom you so kindly shared with me.

I am basically just a reader of some favorite blogs in the political arena and am unskilled in the field of computers. I wish I had something of value to give to learn the knowledge and skill you bring. I have slowly learned some tasks that I sometimes come accross that need tinkering with my computer, but nothing like what you write about.

In the more than 10 years with my PC, I even got rid of my Norton virus protection, because like you say, I found it only troublesome and interferred with my attempts to run scans -- too much hassle to be fair.

I simply ask Google for free virus scans and get a list of some you have mentioned here. It is sometimes frustrating because most want to sell a package or another, but never really offer a free
scan "for free", which is not surprising. Being cheap has nothing to do with my searching for free virus scans. I simply cannot afford or have the appetite to engage in yearly contracts with packages
that will only serve as a "once in a while" virus scan..That is all I need really.

However, Just Me I do not mean to under appreciate the precious time you must have used to prepare such eye opening lesson -- that left my head reeling to be honest. (by an chance, can i get a "free" course on the curriculum you sent me?)

I am serious. I get the impression that you spend a lot of time on a computer. I will go over everything you sent. I will attempt to engage some of the tools you suggested in areas that i may need.

Thanks again Just Me for responding so promptly.

Elmoticky
