Hi All:

someone posted this link on a mailing list I belong to - thought y'all might like it. Tells you how to fix/protect your pc from spyware/virus/etc problems in layman's terms. The steps here won't get rid of the really nasty stuff but I think it is good advice to pass on anyway - especially if like me you are Tech support for all of your friends, family, neighbors, etc.
