Geraldine Robredo, the ad ware infection that I mentioned is harmless at worst. I think that my problem derived with some icons I added on my "mywebsearch" toolbar, thanks to Firefox that gives that option. The icons (four) were useless to me so I just removed them. The reason for my virus scan was that I noticed the slowness of pages searched to turn, with the blue ribbon on the lower-right hand corner not reaching to edge to cause the page to turn. I have an old WinMe machine and have been told here at Annoyances that my PC is like an old car needing parts that are no longer available. So I just wanted to respond to your nice sharing of ClamWin. And at the same time addressing my infected PC, which is not an emergency. Thanks Geraldine again.
