Sounds like the Java ByteVerify virus, it's not at all that harmful and easy to remove. Also, for more info on it ... http://www3.ca.com/securityadvisor/virusin...s.aspx?id=36725 <-- looks like they also have some kind of removal procedure/tool - I'd use their removal procedure/tool to make sure AVG is not pulling a false positive.

Ok, let's try something else... You may want to print out these instructions for reference, since you will have to restart your computer during the fix. Please download AproposFix from here: http://swandog46.geekstogo.com/aproposfix.exe Save it to your desktop but do NOT run it yet. Then please reboot your computer in Safe Mode by doing the following: 1) Restart your computer 2) After hearing your computer beep once during startup, but before the Windows icon appears, press F8. 3) Instead of Windows loading as normal, a menu should appear 4) Select the first option, to run Windows in Safe Mode

What's the error? Try saving it in a different location... B

My ISP has never had any major problems with downtime and with all seriousness, I've never experienced downtime except for the times my power went out or that one time I fried my cable modem...but we won't get into that. I've had so far basically 100% uptime. My ISP isn't a huge company like others, but it's really good. I've found that some of the smaller ISP's can tend to be better. The ISP is owned by the local cable company called Cablevision and the ISP is called Optimum Online. I got cable back in 1998 when it first came out (well my area was one of the firsts to be able to get cabl
