The Comodo website has free products - security & browsers.
My antivirus software was updating definitions. I use chrome and IE, also testing out the latest lavasoft . Having dialup is a real pain these days especially when its my only option. Thanks for the input

Question

Do you mean your router lights are still flashing away? Do you use a WiFi router? If so is it secured (WPA/WPA2 PSK) ?

If you do have WiFi, do you have any other devices that may be accessing it? I know my mobile checks for certain application updates regularly.
