| Thanks for the advice. I tried to download the Java software 3 times at two different times without
success. After hitting the "Download - Get It Now" button, the computer starts going nowhere slowly and I
finally get an unable to get that URL reject. I signed up for their free CD subscription, but the next CD
doesn't go out until June. I'll wait 24 hours and try again.

| My connection is already firewalled and fully updated with Microsoft's critical and security updates, but if
I have a virus problem, it may have gotten on my computer before I did all that. I recently found a Blaster
Worm on my computer that had been hibernating due to the updates I'd downloaded from Microsoft to protect me
from it but it came alive when I had some trouble and reinstalled my Windows XP update which did away with all
the updates. I found Microsoft's instructions on how to get rid of it and did. I also reinstalled the
updates that went away upon my reinstallation of Windows XP.

| I stopped using antivirus software a while ago because it slowed my computer down so much. I've tried
Norton and McAfee and didn't like either one. Any other suggestions?

WWW.WorldNetDaily.com website and determine that their automated "Breaking News"
animations are powered by Java software?
