    Thank you for your input.
      
    I did get it fixed on my own and it is working ok right now.I had to find a
    couple of folders that the antispyware had moved on me. I put thm back in
    the correct place and it worked well. I finally got it all off of my system
    and will never put it back on this system again. That is the best way to not
    have problems with a program. Oneday maybe Microsoft will get it together
    and have a good program for antispyware. One never knows for sure. At least
    I have learned not to use BETA program again.

    Again, thank you for your help.
