Hello, everyone.  There is a nasty virus and hijack program going on,
mostly with msn.com emails so maybe it is just someone has hacked into
msn.com but I recommend a free anti virus and anti spyware program - this
one's for Wiindows which many of you use.  For heaven's sake don't use one
of those fake anti-spyware programs that actually infect your computer.
 They often appear in Banner Ads.

I use a variety of such programs - Avast! AVG - one of them has been very
agressive about trying to sell the PAID version I forget which.  I'm using
my Linux computer right now, I only use Windows rarely
for specialty programs that Linux doesn't have - OCR, Adobe Photoshop (I do
have GIMP but I like Adobe's products they work very well).

Spybot Search and Destroy has a free versions - that's what I usually use
for Windows.  It's very good.
