Thanks very much my friends Joyce & ts,
We decided to go to noadware.net & dpownloaded their software for
$30. According to them we had Hky in twice & second thought once in
our egistry as parasites. I've been using those lyircs sites for
several years. I like to put something on sufimystic when things get
slow. But that's the second time I've had trouble. Another site
started downloading a toolbar & I sht down & got out of it. I guess
I thought I could always get out of it, but not anymore. Everything
is different than it was just a year or two ago. There are some real
bastards out there. But also good people like you to help. My wife
used to be a computer assistant for many years. She remembers when
email & the internet were invented. But these new things are very
tricky.
