I guess it could be called a support group. I remember they frequently used Malwarebytes, and I purchased a copy as a result. My daughter has a super slow computer, and I thought I would visit that site and get some ideas. Any ideas?

He just hasn't been doing much email lately (he's still on dial-up). He's been following a couple other pursuits, one is his interest in astronomy. He said conditions on the 40M net have been terrible and he's not been very active there. He was excited about a recent QSO with Reunion Island, the first new country he's had in awhile. -- 73 de Phil, KO6BB http://www.qsl.net/ko6bb/ (Web Page) PRESENT RADIOS: Grundigs: S-350 (~2006), G6 (2011) & S450DLX (2014).
