My computer is back in service (thanks to a couple of wonderful tech guys), with protection by Trend Micro Internet Security. It took 6 hours to download the update via dialup--a task accomplished while I was sleeping. Think I'll buy the Pro package.

Computer is password protected and I doubt even Dr. PhD, JD, will be able to figure it out, thankyouverymuch.

It's so good to be back online. Now, off to deal with the hundreds of email messages stacked up in my Inbox.

Huzzah!
