Thanks for jumping to the defence there Steve...

What I am saying, and I will clarify this, is that if software downloads are available from the manufactures site use it. I have seen software from 3rd party sites having been decoded and recoded with trojans and backdoor exploits.

To be on the web and not to take the easiest of precautions it a little dim...

And dont over do the software... I firewall, AV and Antispyware is enough to protect you as long as you dont go around like an idiot clicking everything in site. Read it first and then close it, and ignore it. How people hink the internet knows that your machine is slow or has a virus and people click these things and then go... "ohhh, errrr, my PC is busted..." deserve what is coming.

The Internet is not for the stupid.
