Roger,

RN>Everytime I get one from Wendy Zamora at Malwarebytes, I post it.  If you
RN>aren't running Malwarebytes, I highly recommend it.  I use it and MSE to kee
RN>my system safe.  Even the free version of Malwarebytes will save you a lot o
RN>heartache.

  I'm using the IObit Malware Fighter (PRO Version) which has its own
anti-malware/anti-spyware engine, the BitDefender anti-malware engine,
and an anti-ransomware engine. The license I purchased allows me to run
it on 3 computers for 1 year...and I have similar licenses with their
Driver Booster, Smart Defrag, and Advanced System Care programs...and
the rates are very reasonable, when you average them out. I just have
the main BBS desktop computer, and a laptop right now...so, that means I
have "one spot left", should I acquire another system...which at
present, isn't necessary.

RN>I don't get those as often as I used to, but I did the same thing you did
RN>except I didn't reboot.

  Next time that comes up, I'll just END TASK. But, I haven't seen that
deal again since the "full scan".

RN>I dumped Google Chrome last month.  Caused me some problems and I only use
RN>Firefox now.  If I want to use Chrome, it's on my Android.  (-:

  I use Chrome on the Android, and have used Chrome on the main
computers for awhile, because I also have Google Plus and GMail (the
Google Plus, and Skype accounts are rarely used). I also have the
Dashlane Password Manager (as a paid subscription), but I'm not sure if
I could get Firefox to import all my bookmarks and passwords. I keep
seeing a lot of security news on Firefox from the Naked Security Blog
from Sophos. It's almost like they have as many issues as Internut
Exploder (mis-words intended). :P

RN>Microsoft has spent hours on the phone with me trying to straighten out a
RN>problem I had with a system I bought for my son-in-law back in January.  The
RN>key lasted for 6 months -- something I never heard of before and so last nig
RN> they put a new install of W7 64-bit on the machine and everything is fine n

  I've got Windows 7 32-bit, and have no intentions of upgrading...never
mind that I can't afford it.

Daryl
