If you were Registered and logged in, you could reply and use other advanced thread options > From slick1: Although I do practice "Safe Hex", (as best as I know
know how to, my being a newuser and all), I was just
wondering why I always hear that there is no one software
that cleans and immunizes you against everything.
I did get one Trojan, "AntiVirGear", on my system that
AVG did pick-up on, but the rest didn't. Who knows what
else may have slipped by AVG & the rest?
Your reply does answer that I do have a safe system,
but am I going to far to ask if it is ok to add more
security
to my system to run in the background?
