Robertj You're so right. I came back online after a year off from the net and the black hats had been quite busy!! I looked for the game Daemonsgate which I bought several years ago at egghead.(in the Long,long ago,no?) I got so many trojans and viri going to some sites googling the word (daemonsgate) that I immediately started a defensive plan. I found a good cheap firewall (trial) from Sunbelt. the ONLY thing wrong with it is they only accept Mastercard Vesa. AVG7 free, spybot, truesword, ad aware, no adaware,hijackthis,symantec's online site for two or three worms and about two dozen other sites. It took me 2 days to clean Hal-two of these parasites. I now know that XP SP2 firewall offers some protection as does AVG 7 spybot and AD AWARE but not even zone alarm offers the protection of Sunbelt(kerio?). but before the trial expires you either need to delete it or buy it or you will be horribly tortured and tormented with popups every 15 seconds from it trying to connect to sunbelt.
