Tips
- Never install a new anti-virus program after you have a virus. It never works and will actually make your run system worse.
- Never install a second anti-virus program on a system that already has one installed. This will make your system run slower and may lock it up. Always remove the old one first. Just because your subscription has expired doesn’t mean it’s not installed anymore.
