Me too, hype, my ass. Would you LIKE me to send you the virus I had quarantined within a day of installing anti virus software?
You know, I had to reformat this hard drive when I put it in my son's computer to use it in my room, and I didn't bother to download Windows updates, SP2, or install antivirus software. In less than 24 hours (at 4am when I was sleeping), I got a virus that caused me to have to format AGAIN. It rendered my computer useless. After reformatting, I immediately downloaded SP2 and other updates, installed the anti virus software, and again, within 24 hours, it detected a virus. I have it quarantined right now.
