Thanks! I'll check them out!
I did a google search the other day - frightened me.
All I did was search - never clicked on any of them.
I thought that if I recognized a name, I would. BUT all of a
sudden, my screen went black and a blue block popped up that
looked very much like chinese letters.... I had to push the
button on my computer to restart. Nothing showed up nasty on
a scan after that though. I was surprised.
