I have anti virus but I did not install it and I need clear instruction what to do about it because I understand that I need to remove the virus before installation of the anti virus. The computer refuse to install the anti virus now. I read in the thread that I need not to forget disinfect my computer before installing the anti virus. I did not know what to do and I told another person that was with me about it but he deicided to try to install the anti virus and he claimed that no demage can happen from it. Of course he did not succeed and I got the following announcment in my Norton Rescue log file. " Norton Rescue InstallShield Installation Installation started at 7-6-2002 09:44:08 ---------------------------------------------------- unInstaller setup failed to initialize. You may not be able to uninstall this product." I had p200 windows95 at that place and only recently I replaced it by another computer that I had in another room p850(windows98) and was not connected to the internet so I did not worry about viruses there because there was no way it could be infected by viruses. I suspect that the virus came by an email with the subject how are you with an attachment that I did not expect. I never look in emails with subjects like this because I always suspect that they are viruses but I was not the one who read that email but another person who used the same computer(I do not open emails with attachment that I did not expect even to read what is there). I know that it may be a good idea also to stop to use outlook express but the problem is that I have not a lot of experience in installing and uninstalling and other people that I know for some reason do not seem to care about it. I am also afraid that if I decide to use something else then I may have other problems(for example not being able to see hebrew correctly). Uri
