... but maybe I can vacuum...
Now why would you want to go and do something like that? Surely, there are more intellectually interesting things to do to get your mind off you know what.

BTW: I use Trend Micro Titanium Internet Security. I upgrade every year (the 3 machine version). I have it all of my PCs. It's very inexpensive if you shop around... i.e. Amazon, Egghead, etc. Be sure to get the disk, don't just download it. Never had a problem with any virus, illegal access, etc.

My Dad, when he still had a computer, used AVG (the free version which I installed for him because he didn't want to buy something), but he was constantly having issues with viruses, etc. Then again, any and everyone who came into the house was welcome to use his computer and do whatever they wanted. I'm sure that's not the case with you. When the computer I had given him finally crashed beyond repair... I mean it was only 13 years old and until then still purred like a kitten when you could get it booted... I disconnected everything and took it all back home and disassembled it and tossed it. Now and then he brings up the question of when I'm going to bring the computer back to him. He's almost 91 with Parkinson's which leaves him unable to walk and can barely write, but his mind is sharp as a tack. And believe it or not, he stills runs a table saw cutting wood for all his myriad unfinished projects... go figure.
