    If you're using XP there should be an option that automatically comes up, other than that, go investigate the Control Panel or the Internet Options. You'll normally find something.

  • Silverline, you might consider removing AVG... It's no longer free since about two weeks ago, reason for which my computer almost got screwed if it wasn't for me discovering Avast before that happened... For as soon as AVG went unsupported, lots of spyware and adware, trojans and sheriffs attracked my PC at the same time... *Cries just at the thought of such a terrible experience...*

  • That's not what I was informed of. Indeed, they tried to make people think the free-edition was gone and that they had to buy to continue receiving their services... *sighs* A common trick I fell for... *blushes*
    Thanks for letting me know, but it's okay! I got Avast, which seemingly is better, and updates as often as AVG does, etc. Plus, it detected and dealt with things AVG didn't even find in my computer.
