You should definitely get FireFox. I used to be an ardent IE supporter. Then I started using FF occasionally so I could add boxart to the games database. I never looked back. (If you do get it, get the Adblocker add-on too. No popups, no banner ads. really nice)

I have heard good things about firefox. this guy put in a differnt anti virus for me which he claims is pretty good.
will firefox let me carry on as i am without having to load everything in again.

Yes, Firefox will load in your old IE bookmarks, and even set itself as the default browser if you want. Here... use my getfirefox link. ;)

You won't regret it. When you get that, hit Tools/Addons get AdBlock Plus and search other addins to your heart's content.
It seems the mods need help with this forum. I have zero tolerance for trolling, platform criticism (Rule 4), and poster bad-mouthing (Rule 3.4) and you will be reported.

geez, what could a guy do that would cost 170 euros? he probably just installed his own antivirus and fixed it, either that or did a system backup, wiped the system and restored.
