I've had no problem at all except it took a long time to get Q2 SS to load.
Great shots, Toby. I'll be hanging around McClanahans pit today, hope I get to shake your hand and say thank you for the pics.

I actually spent the money on the full version of Malwarebytes. You wouldn't believe how much stuff TRIES to infect your computer, just *visiting* a website or *previewing* an e-mail... not even opening an attachment! Malwarebytes does a great job.

I use Malwarebytes and it does a great job of cleaning up your computer.

Sometimes a virus will sit dormant for a while before you realize that you have one. I think it's just a coincidence that you noticed it after downloading the codec pack.
Jody thinks he got it from a website that has reviews for golf clubs. To get to the Malwarebytes site, you might have to boot into safe mode with networking. To boot into safe mode hold down the F8 key as soon as your computer starts to reboot. You may have to release it momentarily a few time before it knows you are pressing it. Then select boot with networking. If fact, it's probably better that you boot into safe mode when you do this. We thought we got rid of the virus with Malwarebytes, but after using it with new updates a few times, it still would redirect you when you would click on a google search result. Combofix found that problem. Hopefully the latest update for malwarebytes will take care of that problem also. -Toby |

I got a virus trying to download these video's. I couldn't even use my computer. I finally got rid of the virus by running a full scan on my computer that took all night.
