iGuest 3 Report post Posted December 4, 2004 I use google toolbar. Almost installed the google desktop until I read up on security issues. The google deskbar archives all the files that you specify and stores them in a commonly known place. As far as I know this is not able to be changed. If you use it and you were hacked you would be SOL because they would have access to every file you ever didn't want read. Just a thought figured you all would want to know. If you want to block popups get sp2 and install trend micro PC cillin. along with zone alarm pro. I have had these installed for the past few months and have not received any pop ups. Very nicetake care and good luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iGuest 3 Report post Posted December 4, 2004 I dont use any, prefer not to :!:Same here, djbungle. I learnt a long time ago not to clutter up my computer with stuff unless I really need it. That advice came from a computer guru on a TV program I don't see anymore called Disk Doctors. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
