Thank you for your response! CA Antivirus (Yahoo). is supposed to be my security provider, so I uninstalled Symantec, which I didn't realize was on my computer in the first place.

As far as the Comodo Firewall, yes you are correct, it is a new addition - I installed it because of the article "PC Safety and Security--What Do I Need?" on your website stressing the importance of having one. The computer doesn't really seem to be running more slowly with it, other than the prompts when trying to download a file. If I get rid of my Firewall, then what will be protecting my computer?

Also, have all the viruses been removed from my computer?

Thank you so much for all your help!
