Re: [or-roots] Computer crash's</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>When I downloaded IE8 the other night It came with a
Program called Virus soft from Microsoft's download site, the Virus
Soft program told me all my programs on my computer were infected
with a trojan virus and wanted me to download their Virus Soft
program, which installed with automatic updates, but to active I had
to pay $60.00, I could not open any of my programs or even get into
the internet, It would not let me uninstall it or remove it, as I
said I had to do a full restore of my computer to get my computer
back and I still to not have everything back to normal.<BR>I sent an
Email to microsoft and they will not even reply.<SPAN
