LOL Good analogy. You are right.

Thx for the advice re: too many anti-spyware programs running. I did not know that. Some of what I mentioned in my post I think are just scanners. That is , I don't think they actually run in the background. I know Teatimer does, and Pest Patrol does, and probably Windows defender. But I think the AVG stuff is passive.

Also, good point about the ISP wanting to protect their good reputation.

Thx agiaan.
