I have the AVG antivirus prgramme and try to update it, but although the update download,s i can never get it to actually update into the thing that runs the scan. (Can you tell I'm ever so slightly computer illiterate?). All I know is, my AVG is constantly telling me that the data base is out of date. But it wont let me update. Grrr.

I'm wondering - should I delete the whole AVG and re-download it?

Secondly - has anyone else been getting emails suposedly from hotmail user services saying that an email could not be sent - yet you haven't actaully been trying to send one? I keep getting those 'return to sender' emails with the subject line 'cookies' and an attachment of the same name. I haven't opened the attachment, but haven't been able to find it listed as a name for a virus or worm...
