RE: Vista does not recognize Anti-Virus software

Thanks Everyone,

I'm at work right now but when I get home this evening I will try the
suggestions (cleaning up, dumping AVG, using Avast etc) that you have all
offered and see how it goes. I really appreciate all your comments and
hopefully this nana will not be so frustrated with my system. Have a great
day !
