I have been running avast for several years. VERY good program. I have never had a virus get through. I've tons of warnings, but it always catches them. You can scan any drive, any file, any folder, ect...
I do really like this program. I had Norton and nothing but trouble.

AVG is very good also. I don't know what mobo you bought, but the cd contains all your drivers. It will contain your chip set, audio, graphics, ect. As well as some utilities you may need. Install windows first. Then use mobo disk for your drivers. CD should auto start. I think I answered some questions for you here.

If you need any more just ask or pm.
good luck.

Thanks on the drum sig. Been playing for a long time. Very relaxing.
