    Hi,
    The problem with my Dell 4700, Windows XP Home, is this:  I am unable to access any websites that I need to update my antivirus or to download my free (from Comcast) McAfee. I've been online chatting with Comcast techs and have tried different things, none of which worked. I've been told that I might have a virus keeping me from accessing those sites.
    I had McAfee, but uninstalled it due to a problem and thought I would reinstall it and be ok. After I failed to reinstall because it wouldn't let me into the McAfee website, I downloaded AVG as a temporary back-up. It ran but when I tried to update it, I could not go to their website.  Can anyone give me some suggestions? I am feeling insecure with old virus definitions and nervous about the possible virus I do have. Thank you
