Hi,
I downloaded and installed CAV freeware version from a site called Freeware Internet Utilities etc. I found it by Googling "NetLimiter and similar". That gave a list, and I chose this one, http://www.canadiancontent.net/tech/download/NetLimiter.html. On this page is the http://www.canadiancontent.net/tech/freeware/Internet+Utilities/. I then clicked on Anti-Virus, and got this page, http://www.canadiancontent.net/tech/freeware/Antivirus+Software/. I downloaded only one program from this page, Comodo Antivirus,
Description:
Comodo AntiVirus leverages multiple technologies (including on demand & on access scanning, email scanning, process monitoring and worm blocking) to immediately start cleaning or quarantining suspicious files from your hard drives, shared disks, emails, downloads and system memory. It's easy to install and configure, will not slow down your PC by hogging system resources and is free for life to the end user.
Free Download: Download Comodo AntiVirus (From Antivirus Software)
License: Freeware
Filesize: 24.16 Mb Compatibility: Windows2000,WinXP
Version: 1.0.0.0
It sounded good, but has hogged my resources, will not let my computer boot up, acts like a virus, not detectable by PC-cillin or Ewido Anti-Malware.
I can't uninstall it using Control Panel, Add/Remove Programs, as it states that I am in Safe Mode, which I am. It is the only way I can try to rid myself of your virus, as regular mode is unavailable.
Can someone please suggest an answer? I saw many other programs on the above page that I was thinking of downloading, but not now. I keep getting burned, while leading a harmless existence myself.
Joe
