AVG is a free app.. Uninstall it and go redownload it from their site, they will email you a new key as soon as you re-register. _________________ http://www.nosmacktards.com |

I use Stinger by Network Associates, you can find it at http://vil.nai.com/vil/stinger/. It is scans for about 40 of the most current and rampant viruses.
There is another free scanner called something like Panda Scan, if you search I'm sure you could find it. _________________

Goto http://housecall.antivirus.com
Using IE (Internet Explorer)
Click on Scan for Free
Pick USA
then click yes on the certificate that pops up, it will download the definitions and then you will see your computer in a white box, pick the drives you want to scan and click "automatically clean" and click SCAN. Its good stuff and if you like it I would recommend buying the Trend Micro product. _________________ {db}Deathbringer
