It's horrible the people who write viruses like these! I always wonder what the goal of a virus writter is in first place!?

I got that notice in an email. I use Panda Titanium, they are pretty much on top of things. I have over 66,200 virus signature files on here. :P I get 6-12 new ones everyday.

Wow that sounds great, is that program free? I use PC Cillen but always shut it off, it slows down everything. I only update and do a scan on specific files if I download something suspecious, or something that could have a virus. (ex: any program I download from kazaa - I'll usually do an definition update and scan the program)

Panda Titanium is not free, but I think it is the best. I have it set to auto update so no worries there. They have a free online scan that is very thorough. Anytime you want to use it, go to pandasoftware.com. ;)
