Free virus scans

Thanks Rich...I have 64 bit..... Do you recommend any browsers? Or should I just use explorer?

I have another question...how come even if I do not open explorer it always seems to be running under the "memory" section of the processes, yet, Firefox isnt on there unless I actually open it?

Well, I use IE and have no problem, give that a try.
I think that your basic problem is that you do not have enough ram. What do you have 3GB. I have 6GB. If your computer is fairly new and you are happy with the performance, you may want to test with more ram. Dont mix and match, buy all at once. It is just an opinion, but I think that you will work much better.

Explorer is on just about all the time. Its your desktop and other user features
explorer.exe Windows process - What is it?
