Update on the computer situation

Thanks to no less than FOUR spyware-smashing utilities, I think my immediate computer danger has subsided. It's true, NAV still can't run its email protection and, more than likely, I still have issues with Windows Installer, but my machine seems to be humming along fairly well. You have NO idea what a relief it is that I don't have to reformat & reinstall everything. That thought was giving me nightmares, especially when I started listing everything I'd need to reinstall.

If all goes well, I'll leave things as they are for now and not go the reinstall route unless things start melting down again...
