4/9/2011 12:57:06 PM In the last 6 months or so, it has locked up for downloading data, but very few reboots required. I have a feeling it is the Service Provider, trying to sell their new 'Boost' program. The computer serves my purpose and is relaible.

7/20/2010 5:46:24 AM Recently contacted virus, your co. helped and deleted it. Since then....Lots of freeze ups. Lots of junk mail. Pup up error message every time the PC is rebooted says a .dll file missing. After the "fix" i loaded ie8 thinking it would help security as it claims. Since loading it i'm getting all kinds of pop up web sites. CA Security Center reports trojans and malware every day.
