Good morning?
It's mid-afternoon here . . . time zones get on my nerves, I can never keep track.
If Spybot found nothing you're probably clean, but I'd be inclined to run ewido, avg and Adaware again to make sure.
A Hijack this log may also help identify any remaining malware.
This may sound crazy but do you think if I uploaded them ( my Mp3s) to a file sharing site temporarily until I could d/l them back onto my pc that would work?
That wouldn't work, unless I'm misunderstanding you. What exactly do you mean by a file sharing site?
You could upload them to an online storage facility, but it would take a long time.
I wish I could just take the whole music folder and make it smaller somehow....
Zipping it would make it a little smaller, but because they're already compressed it wouldn't make a lot of difference unfortunately.
You could convert all the files to a lower bitrate - the trade off is that it would take a long time and would reduce the quality.
Plus... What's up with my Safe Mode???
I don't know, what is up?
What exactly is wrong with it?
You said AVG froze in safe mode, but you said you then went through all the Dell troubleshooting, so how is safe mode now?
