Yes, a great program. I ran it just now and it even detected a Windows security update of a couple years ago that was not properly installed, and told me I should d/l it and install it properly. I never got that kind of info from the Windows update site. Thanks for the idea, Ben.
It did one funny thing: under Virus Protection it tells me I have McAfee Virus Scan and haven't scanned for a couple of years. That was when I gave up McAfee in disgust for their dirty billing tricks. Never even tried to clean all the McAfee junk off my machine. Been happy with AVG Free and a little richer ever since. Funny though that it didn't mention AVG, though it is listed further down in a long list of software I have installed.
