Thanks OldRed

Have uninstalled my previous copy and installed this one. Thanks so much for the advice and link. Much appreciated

 

It was a bit of a sales pitch

The window that comes up to tell you about the old version expiring links you to any and every paid version of the software. It never mentions the free one!</p>

They have also started doing a free anti-spyware. It is an updated version of the old Ewido suite. Seems a good alternative to the M$ one if you have...er...problems...installing that one.</p>

 

Do you have a link for the free antispyware? nt

 

Yes

Have downloaded it.

 

RE: Thanks OldRed

PS. the magazine ain't bad, either .... cheap and written in 'English' for us numpties, that are notinto Tec speak. </p>
