| Ok, I have given up searching in the windows XP newsgroup
| seeing if there where any else having problems when
| running Ad-aware. if there is such post I sure can't find
| it except for a bunch user in this newsgroup saying Ad-
| aware is a good recomendation, as well as Windows expert
| zone saying the samething.
|
| So I go to try it by downloading the software and
| installing it onto my Windows XP Home Edition system.
| Though after tring 2 times of scanning my system with Ad-
| aware, a RPC error pops-up stating somthing to the fact I
| need to save all my work within such and such amount of
| time and the system will reboot after the time has
| expires.
|
| Now the last time I remember recieving this error was
| when the spybot32.worm just came out which would almost
| make it impossible for me to do anything on my system.
| Finding that this was a virus, I followed the instruction
| from symantec's website on how to remove the virus, and
| downloaded the microsoft security patch, and bought a
| hardware firewall (Linksys Firewall Router), which after
| doing so everthing looked fine. Now I get this same error
| message again when running Ad-aware, so I tried scanning
| my system with Nortans Antivirus and there where no
| viruses found. I also recieved a message this morning
| that LiveUpdate had downloaded the new updates on to my
| system. So inconclusion I know I have a firewall package,
| I know that Nortan's Antivirus LiveUpdate is up to date,
| and I had just scanned my computer after finding this RPC
| error would pop-up which didn't find any viruses. So what
| the *!@# is wrong with my damb XP Home Edition system?
