Default Re: A good anti-virus?

haha, I knew that was coming. Every now and then, I would run an online anti-virus scan.. just to make sure, and it never picked anything up neither.

Default Re: A good anti-virus?

Yeah, thats true.
Its crazy how many websites there are out there that say 'Warning! You have a virus on your computer! click here to download our FREE anti-virus!'

I guess some of these sites can be pretty convincing for un-experienced computer users.

By any chance can we just close this thread? We keep getting the same suggestions, the same questions and the same fights every post. We could just close this and have people make seperate threads for thier questions just like they should be doing. This thread is pointless anymore
