Then I just go to Virustotal, and drag and drop the download. I have my browser(s) set to download anything. This is why a site like Virustotal is so helpful. Once you actually start to interact with the program. Just downloading a program is pretty safe. There's a website called Virustotal than will scan anything you want, with 60+ antivirus programs. I often find something that sounds interesting that I'd like to download, but I wont dare touch it for fear of introducing a virus or problem into my system. Thank you, because I am so poor at working my Pc and to be honest I dont seem to retain much when I try to learn, I am concerned about trying to make something better while in fact I am causing myself problems, problems I can't fix. Windows pretty much takes care of itself. I've been running Windows since the 3.1 days, and up until Windows 10 and 11, we really did have to "clean" our PCs occasionally.

It started to use some less than savory, methods. I wonder if I were to agree and let Mc Afee do this, does this mean I could lose files I my not want to lose? Remember I'm old my mind works slowly when and if it works at all. No I use McAfee for virus protection and pay them for it.
