Hi E8,

All the links go to a Comcast page saying "Node not found"

Hi niod,

Not anymore!!  Thanks!

[CCCarole]

Secunia is such a great program, thanks for the heads up on the update. Definitely will take care of my PC once I boot it up! C C

[Paraniod]

Yeah, looks good, especially if you don't have the time to make sure everything is updated...

I used the online scanner found here:

Thorough scan took about 10 mins

When I did the new install my scan took maybe three minutes.  Of course, that makes sense, since my score was already at 100% with the old version! I like the new lay-out too.

I guess I do a good job of maintainting my programs. I installed Secunia to see what it would say. The result, all my programs were up to date.

I'll leave it installed, but turn off run at boot. I'll run it manually.

[CCCarole]

LPP, I run it manually as well.  Have this routine, manually doing updates on Malwarebytes, Spyware Blaster, MS Essentials, and Live Updates as well.  I always want to know what is being updated before it is actually done.
