So you do essentially have multiple antivirus programs installed on your computer but they are not necessarily active at the same time. I would also recommend if you are having a problem you can use Spybot search and destroy or Malware bytes. (http://www.malwarebytes.org/)You should always run a computer protection software I.E. Microsoft security essentials, Norton 360, McAfee or one of the many computer security/antivirus programs. Going with no protection is a bad Idea. There are many free options out there like Microsoft security essentials so there is no reason why you should not have it.

It's not in my Netscape or Gmail accounts though?? It's been almost a year since it began & it monly sends one email to each person. A new person emails me, they get one. The forum told me to quit using Yahoo, every thing they tried didn't work.I was told it was embedded in my registry??

What's up with that?
