I just noticed that McAfee is strangely absent from this computer...I mean gone totally, weird.

Browser crashing, virus software MIA.

Gee, I wonder what's wrong....

It's seriously weird! I restored to the 4th and downloaded McAfee. I also turned my firewall and defender programs back on, they were off. I'm about to clean out my bank accounts! This shit is creepy!

Merry Christmas, you have what I like to call the polymorphic clusterfuck.

Do you happen to have a friend that is REALLY good with computers? Because if you don't, I don't see this ending well. These things aren't something that can be removed by any ONE piece of software. This type of infection usually takes a dedicated and experienced computer person (using a number of tools) a few days to completely eradicate.

Hmmm...well I hope that you're wrong... So far everything is okay and I think that it's some stupid Windows Update. When I Googled it, I saw about 1,000 very similar complaints about constant browser crashing after an update. I guess we'll see. I'm not even worried, I still have another year or so on my warranty and they can just send my ass another computer for all I care.

That was my set-up before Windows 7, some of those add ons no longer work for me. I need to research this further when I get back from testing out my new grips!

No Tigger. Firefox has the option to set up profiles on the same computer. You auto use the standard default. You can create other ones too and set them as default.
