Yes, user error -- intentional or otherwise -- is a source of many computer problems.   ;)

Try using them on other computers first if this av you've downloaded work then there is a problem with your computer like a virus or something try scanning your PC with the anti virus you are using right now.

I believe Stinger needs to be on the Desktop to run...

In addition to that it should be DLoaded every time you need to run it as it is updated daily...

When I first looked at this post last night, all it contained was the pronoun "i."
My apologies.
