I have dial up. Pitty me. I had to uninstall and re-download my anti-virus program....a 2 1/2 hour download for me.

Attempt #1: Almost successful download this morning. Gets down to the last 2 min...and freezes there for 30 min. I give up and hit "cancel".

Attempt #2: This afternoon. Gets down to the last 5 min and my 2 yr old son pushes the power button on my CPU. Have to try very hard not to have a meltdown and sell him to the gypsies.

Attempt #3: This evening. 5 min ago I just noticed that I only had 50 min left....and proceeded to...for some mysterious reason I don't understand.....hit "cancel". Then sit there for 2 minutes in disbelief.

Time to start drinking.....

AVG is free adn does a pretty good job for me. Haven't had a virus in at least three years. Course, I am behind two firewalls and two antiviruses here on the home network and am dang careful what I do and open
