Antivirus for win9x OS
Thanks, I will consider that nav2002 as a possible solution. yes... it is a
bit old of a system and least likely to get an infection, but I would sleep better with an active sheild and scanner darkly. I actually had an old version of McAfee that as supposed to be perpetial... The U-verse ATnT system has a managed security suite from M but it will not install on win9x platforms. |

Antivirus for win9x OS
Great! thanks I'll try that. I did go for a while off the internet. I will
have to reinstall Avast since I already unistalled that program. "Sunny" wrote in message ond.com... "Eddie" wrote in message u... Jim wrote: What are you all using for AV now that Avast has stopped updating the win9x OS? Avast! I still get updates. Ed Same here, although the original poster may have left it more than a week to "update" (There is some sort of glitch that causes Win98 to fail updating if left too long) The solution is to download the 40Mb update and manually install. http://www.avast.com/download-update Make sure Version 4 is selected HTH |
