Question
HI Lorry ,

I accidentally downloaded the xpantivirus 2008. I was able to uninstall most of it. But this what I am facing now. When I do a search in google it gets redirected to many different search engines. On startup I get a blue screen that says You need antivirus software..
Also IE keeps closing giving some error. I can go to the internet thru my computer but not by clicking on the IE link..
Please help..

Thanks and appreciate it..
