Even having Service Pack 2 and all Microsoft security patches and updates provides no protection. This vulnerability enables hackers to install and run any program code they want on your PC -- all you have to do is display a WMF graphics file in a browser or any other program. This means that your computer can get infected just by visiting a website and displaying an image (WMFs an easily be hidden as JPGs, GIFs or other formats). This vulnerability is NOT restricted to Internet Explorer or any one program. ANY browser and ANY program that can display a WMF file can infect your computer. Unbelievable but true: Microsoft has admitted the problem but say they are not going to release a fix until next Tuesday, together with their regular patches. ASHAMPOO HAS A SOLUTION NOW! We have created a fix for the WMF vulnerability and all users can download it now FREE to protect their computers against this extremely serious hazard. This solution has been developed by the team working on our innovative new security tool Ashampoo AntiSpyWare, which is going to be released on 8 February (advance orders can be placed starting on 6 January).

Eldmannen....... Downloaded the .iso Puppy Linux file yesterday and burned it to a bootable CD. Really looks interesting, and will be some challenging fun for the near future. Puppy seems fairly simple and a good stepping stone to the full blown version. Please explain shell account????

AVG does have a uninstall option.....Start/Programs/AVG/Uninstall AVG Free Edition for Windows. You might give that a go. I have been using AVG Free for almost a year and have never had to reboot after downloading an update. (As Yet) AVG 7.1 is available soon, coming in 2 parts updatable starting Oct 24th I believe.
