Thank you. That is good to know. I wonder if other antivirus programs cause the same problem. We use Microsoft front-end at work, and I use web root at home. I occasionally have this problem in both places. Something to check into.

Now that it is gone, mostly, the problem is gone as well. Apparently, you cannot completely remove it without getting a tool from their website and perhaps I should do that so it can't somehow creep back on to my computer! So crazy!

> Well, yes it is a laptop and I have definitely wondered about that, however, I have a USB keyboard hooked up to it. However, it just now occurred to me that the fan pad I have it sitting on and which comes on when the computer comes on might be causing it. I don't really need it but I had a much larger laptop which tended to get too hot partly because the cat liked to lie where the nice warm air was coming out. Anyway, I bought the fan pad for that reason and just put the new one on there. I will take it off that pad this evening and see if that works. Hope that wasn't TMI! LOL.
