[gui-talk] Fwd: Article: Microsoft releasesfreeantivirussoftware

Fri Oct 2 14:08:52 UTC 2009

Ever since I installed the MS anti-virus software, I am unable to open any 
of the BBC sites, and am also unable to listen to the BBC programs using 
Webbie. Has anyone experienced this problem? What settings should I change 
in order to get these sites working again? I tried turning off realtime 
protection, but no luck.

Thanks,
Geetha

Hi,

If your current system is working fine why not leave it alone?
