Thanx to everyone that turned me on to Dell computer, I finally did buy mine from them in late December and was never more satisfied.

Now to the Virus solution

I do have Norton protection, but better than that (I think) is a protection I get from Outlook Express. Since the purchase of my new computer, I have (as yet ) to receive any viruses as OE blocks any suspecious incoming emails. True, I am missings some of the great jokes being sent but I can easily forfeit that knowing I will not be receiving any real viruses.
