I got to know it just now!!! I think it was pretty much better than the current McAfee VirusScan Plus. Of course it didn't have a firewall, but this McAfee is HORRIBLY slow.

I live in Canada, and I heard that you can not be busted using limewire in Canada. Is that true?
If not, how can I clear my files (or hide them) so that I can not get busted. I heard something about clearing the "share" file in Limewire. How do I do that, and does that work?
Finally, if Limewire is not legal, why doesnt the FBI or something just shut it down or something?

I tried running HijackThis, but it said I dont have write access to my hosts file. Someone please help me on what to do...

I have Panda Antivirus and WinPatrol along with UniBlue's Spycatcher. It doesnt matter to me if HijackThis is working, I just want to be completeley sure that there is no keylogger on my PC. It would also probably be a commercial keylogger, put on by a friend (haha). But I could be wrong, please help.

Okay...So I am definitely NOT a computer kid. But just yesterday, I started getting POP UPS from Internet Explorer 7, while using Firefox. I uninstalled IE7, but IE6 still exists because its preinstalled with Windows XP, right? I need to get rid of IE6 because I cannot take these popups. The pop up blocker is on, but it automatically turns off when each pop up happens. I'm not getting like porn for pop ups...Just random things. False virus scans, BS win a ps3..That kinda junk. I just need to get rid of IE6. I cannot find it in my Add/Remove section in the Control Panel. Please do not post here to say "Sorry, don't know." This isnt a place to rack up a post count. I am in serious need for instructions. I've screwed up our computers too many times, and we can't afford another one :S
