Hi Bill and all,
I use to feel that way as well. I use to use Microsoft Security Essentials, 
until about a month ago, but then Microsoft said in a news story on Kim 
Komando's web site, (she's a national tech expert), the story said, 
"Microsoft recommends people get away from Microsoft Security Essentials, 
and go with another antivirus program."
When Microsoft tells you their antivirus software isn't good any more, 
that's pretty huge.
So, what I did was, I had to get sighted help over, and he installed 
something called Bit Defender, free edition, and it is awesome.
Harry

Microsoft Security Essentials. Accessible, easy to use, doesn't slow your
machine, updates itself without bothering you.

Subject: [VICUG-L] anti virus programs

I'm looking for an accessible free anti virus program.  I've heard a v g's
new version is not accessible.  Any recommendations for a very non-techy
person?
Dory
