    most virus are spread through IE. IE is not a safe browser. you should use a more secure browser to protect your PC from virus.

    i recommand you to use firefox with Google toolbar. firefox can block any any popup and disable any virus and adware, spyware on webpage, so, firefox is much safer than IE browser. as you know, most of virus spread throught internet and webpage.

    besides, firefox is much smaller than IE, so it run faster than IE.

    download firef ox for free, Just have a try:

    i would say Norton 360 all I’m 1 security. it can be put on 3 computers, can get rid of virus and spy-ware, protects against on-line shopping, backs up all your important files, optimized your PC for Best performance and has a free support thing that’s like msn to fix problems with it. and a thing comes with it that blocks pop ups and stuff like that.
