Well I installed that then. Managed to do it all by myself as well. :^o
“…all by myself as well” Really ????? Hmmmmmm !!!!!
I bought kaspersky 2009 when PB gave me his recommendations, and when I purchased a brand new laptop I updated to the 2010 version on that and it is fab. I used my memory stick in a works computer and when I plugged it into my laptop kaspersky checked it and went haywire, there was a worm on it, I was then able to tell the IT bods at work that their virus checker was c**p and they thanked my. Good old kaspersky I wouldnt be without it now.
I had the identical experience when my daughter brought her memory stick home from school. A swift scan by Uncle K followed by bid red screens screaming “Infection found”.
GOTCHA !!!!!
There’s nothing more pleasurable than the slighlty smug and self-satisfied smile of a parent who can (on this occasion at any rate) seem to know more about IT that their offspring!!!!
Well all I can say is, thank God for my Kaspersky yesterday. All I was doing was composing an email on msn, something I have done a squillion times before. Now Kaspersky chunters away in the background constantly scanning for nasties, when all of a sudden up pops a bright yellow window with the message that it had found something extreemly dangerous.! :shock: I’ll say it had. 2 Bloody viruses were trying to gain entry to my pc. The only way I can describe what happened is like this:
You know how if you want to type something into windows comand, you get this black screen in front of you that you type in? Well 4 of those loaded, one after the after. I think whatever it was, was actually trying to get into my windows system itself. If it had done so, my pc would be up the creek without a paddle now.
When you get the dreaded warning, you usually get 3 options to deal with it. I always click the one that has *recomended* next to it. So I did all that, then I ran a full scan just to be sure. It found two nasty software applications and disinfected them, and restarted my pc. Then I finished the scan and all appears to be well now.
Needless to say I shan’t be going on msn again. I can’t work out what happened though. I’ve used msn for years, and all I was doing was typing an email. Thank God for Kaspersky is all I can say. I’ve now created a BT email account for my daughter just to be on the safe side, as she used msn previously.
Thank you all for your entirely unsolicited testimonials for Kaspersky. These heartwarming little stories, when passed on to their PR department, allow me to claim substantial commission cheques. Every little bit helps eh?
