And I suggest you do this at least once a month to keep your computer up to date security- and performance -wise.

Thanks, Ice. I didn't know about that. I never had problems with viruses when I had my Windows 98. The more I use XP, the more I hate it.

I just thought I'd let y'all know I lost EVERYFREAKINGTHING on my computer for nothing!! I still have the worm. My ISP is going to send me a CD to run and remove it... hopefully.

If any of you are on my bj-mailing list, please e-mail me because I lost my addressess along with everything else.
