Tuesday morning at 11:00.

Just powered up the  infected laptop.

It is sitting with windows popping up (over 20 so far, one every 5 seconds) saying "It is time to die".

Also in toolbar is an icon with a balloon saying to download a certain spyware program.

I am going to delete all downloads I did last night on the flashdrive before I infect the other 3 computers in my lan system.

I'll keep you updated as to what happens, but truly, it looks like I will have to go software shopping for a CD of Win2000 Pro.

Over 100 warnings now.

John :'( ???

At this point, I agree with you. You can get Win 2K CD for $30-40...

You will be quite happy with Win2K Pro.
The most stable OS the Mothership ever released IMHO.

P.S. There are 4 Service Packs for that OS...make sure to grab them.
