new in here / have questions

[SonnyThomas]

Hi all. I've owned a computer for just over a year and still learning big time. One question right off; Of all the updates I've received, it seems the checks get bigger and bigger. Should I dumped SpyBot and reload? AVG is the same way, like both SpyBot and AVG taking a hour or so to do all checks. Can email me at .. I had heck of time just getting in here and probably get lost coming back. Thanks for any help.....
