zone alarm is spy ware...
the free version sets my routers firewall screeming
>>zone alarm is spy ware...
that is silly... do a netstat while you run it... amazing the things people come up with.
Considering the alternative (I am getting 100 emails with virus attachments per day from some guy in New York... which I have reported to his ISP) if I were you Witch King, I would steal some virus software to fix the problem.
I am not big on stealing software, but in such a case... you absolutely must get it cleaned. It is a particularly nasty thing...

Go to norton and download some demos....
Or splash out the 30 to get the full version.
I wouldnt use an OS without a virus guard
>but I'm running a MS operating system so what can I do?
Sit down and learn how to use it. You expect it to guess what
you want right out of the box. That won't happen in the near
future. Before you complain about something, learn.
Get the latest Versions, don't open attachments and get a
firewall.
If you've got Windows, all of this is FREE, you just have to
DO it.

When in doubt, read the FAQ.
Then ask a smart question.
I was running all the updates. IE 6, SP 2. The only thing I didn't have is the firewall.
I never open attachments.

I locked all the doors but one and the bad guys still got in...
Then get one, it's free if you get ZoneAlarm.

OK, Dean, time for cleansing breaths...
Out with the bad air, in with the good, out with the bad air, in with the good....
Better?
Now - reformat and install DOS... Don't even try Windows. How many viruses do you hear of that target DOS? Exactly!
thats cause you don't need viruses to hose up DOS... besides every virus that could possibly be written for DOS has been written.
(nv) left out one thing,
don't whatever you use DONT use outlook its the gateway to hell.
most of the big viruses that do all the damage you've heard about in the past 2 years spread through outlook.

Actually I am using Outlook 2000 and I have not been hit by a
virus or worm as long as I have Windows98/2K
