Hello Matthew, what is a Firefox browser? And please behave yourself
It's this... check it out... http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/ And I'm always behaving!

And what is the purpose of that?

It's an internet browser and it's much better than IE, that's the point! Now log on to Yahoo!

Hey buddy, don't mean to intrude but... be careful with browser extensions. They are usually adware and spyware. I'd hate to see your PC get bogged down.

Thanks for the warning! Ironic though since one of the main reasons I downloaded Firefox was to reduce the spyware that got on here.

Where can one go to check for spyware on his/her machine?

Well, Gep, being as old as you are and not familiar with this process, I'm sure I need to introduce you into the further technology of computers...
You can download programs (free) like AdAware or SpyBot, amongst others, and you can check that way. Not too hard. But don't worry, someday extensive usage on here will turn you into a real techie!

I don't know if you meant here as in this board Matthew. But I havent had any problems here. And Senor Hymmn, I would personally buy an anti spyware program. But there are two that I trust online... Spybot and Lavasoft, both are free.

Nah, I meant as in the computer in general. But, yeah, Jonathan's right, buying an anti-spyware program is usually the best way to go, though, like he said, those two are pretty good, which are free. I'm curious though, which one do you use?

OK, another computer idiot here. What do these programs do?

But I am a real techie.
I studied computers, programming even. Feel right at home with music on these things too. Even know audio restoration (like Free As a Bird) and T-racks mastering on here. And no Matt, I'm not nearly as old as you are young, but nice try.

I've gone thru a couple. The last I bought was Spy Subtract. But it didn't get all of it. The f*cked up thing is, I never go to porn or any crazy sites... most are from stupid links that people send me. Stupid me, I open them.

I may be a sleazebag... but I prefer my sleaze in real life.
Which reminds me, I didn't play an April fools joke this year.

True. Probably best, anyways. BTW, Happy 1 Year Anniversary to you and Val.
