thanks for teaching me how to use the MSN antivirus software..sometimes i have to removed the virus in a manual way, because there are antivirus that cannot completely remove the virus.

Hey, hopefully someone can make use of this 

If you are having issues running virus scanners whilst your computer is turned on, try to start into ‘Safe Mode’.

If you’re using a version of Windows, you’ll be able to do this. (Windows XP, Windows Vista & Windows 7)

Safe Mode:
Turn computer off
Turn computer on whilst tapping F8. When prompted select ’safe mode with networking’
When prompted, click Yes & start into Windows as normal.

you need to disconnect fromyour messenger at any other machine.

for example if you left ur messenger connected at the office, when you connect at home, it will keep the office connection alive and it will keep disconnecting you from the connection at home.
