Aloha,
Thank you for all the replies.
I have Vista Home Premium. I am still fumbling my way thru all it's features.
So far, My opinion on Vista is negative. I like plain XP better.
Yes, I am running the latest version of Avast.
Some bugs, of which, I know nothing about, were found and quarantined. I deleted them.
There is no change.
I am Not computer literate. But, I will keep at looking at the suggestions.
Thanks you
