A rather blunt first post but maybe it has to be said.......?

Lay off the porn sites dude.

Rompax We Burn Everything said.............

Two days ago as i was searching my pc folders i found out that there was a
dialer executable file in my programe files folder. I noticed that the file
was last >modified a day that i ddin't open my pc. Is there any change for
that file to have attributes than the real one?



Mcaffe sucks in a big way and in my opinion NOD32 scanner is the best?!?

I'm expecting flame mail  from this ...but one gets that.....

Great mailing list in general people ....

Thanks.

  I am a kind of newbiews on the virus matter but as everybody do, i want to
keep my pc as safe as i can.
  i have install Mcaffe and Zone alarm pro for firewalls and i used some
utilies to clean my machine from spyware and trojans.

  Two days ago as i was searching my pc folders i found out that there was a
dialer executable file in my programe files folder. I noticed that the file
was last modified a day that i ddin't open my pc. Is there any change for
that file to have attributes than the real one?

  What i would like to ask is if i will be more safe if i logon on my
machine as a single user, since i don't have the privillage to install,
instend of administrator
  Thanks for any replay and a bit sorry about my poor english
  I work on Win XP prof.
