A while back they offered the free updates cd and sent a copy of E-trust av and firewall, zone alarm with a different name....giant software from what I read was for spyware security...as far as I know anyway and that is what they are offering.

Ok, I D/L this beta. I had a shock. Someone had placed a file on my PC which uploaded all passwords, ect. I always run AV, Spybot, Firewall, Adaware......all of the ones we all know about, but NONE of them detected this.
I was too shocked to even take note of what this file was. I did not take MS word for it, I ran a check on my PC, and found the file. Googled it and found it would proabably have been emailed onto my PC.
I never open attachments from ppl I don't know, and even then I scan them. For all who posted this, thank you.
