A lot of scam companies either give you fake virus scans,put viruses on your computer then ask you to pay to get rid of them,or find viruses for free and ask you to pay to get rid of them.
Don't trust them,odds on we can do the job for free.

Yep thats what I was saying, and the worst offender is Norton. I can generate a virus with notepad in minutes, perfectly harmless, but the scan goes ballistic and this is more or less what they do. I gave the wrong link earlier this is where I got Ad Aware from click

Nope it's the same program just that you got the upgraded version on trial, should convert to the freeware when the trial runs out.

After looking at the site again, you do have the freeversion so it should be ok

Seems to me that that one is freeware and it's the plus one that's the trial version.

Well If you go for the ad aware plus it wants you to take an up an offer of catalogues credit cards or some other shit. If you go to the freeware it directs you to Download.com. So I will change the link..

I'm not sure what's going on with Netscape Navigator.
It seems from Feb 1st they stopped support for it and are recommending that users change to firefox
