Hmm. May have spoken too soon in re: malware.
My computer is clean, as far as I can tell (though I could be missing something), but the same address keeps popping up on Avast trying to get back in. Avast is warding it off no problem, but frankly it's annoying and I would like it to go away. I can't tell if it's related to either browser (I've had it pop up once each while using Firefox, which I was using when the whole thing started, and IE, which I am using now; Firefox is off, but I did open it first, if that makes any difference). I know I have a computer expert or two in my f-list - what do I do? (![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
iarwain, I know we haven't spoken in forever, but I am looking at you in particular here. Please help!) I would prefer to avoid having to take it anywhere, since I have no money, so I want to try whatever I can on my own first before I cave and admit that I lose at owning a computer.
Help?
