Thanks to both of you. My point was that all the stuff that comes up in the search for software IS small and DOES contain a virus.

Took me a few downloads to figure it out about the small file size but I got it. I just wonder how come everything I search for is a virus.

Thanks for the link and the posted info.

And no...I would not become intolerant to people who don't know what they are doing, that is why they seek help on places like this. Maybe Sphinx has permanent PMS if she joins forums just so she can "snap at people".

I had no idea about Gnutella until I read another post by some poor guy who paid lots of money for nothing. I didn't know all of these p2p's connected to the same network. That was interesting to read and I have more of an understanding now.

Again, thank you both for your patience and help. It is appreciated by us "newbies"
