No I use no P2P. I recently subscribed to i-tunes because I refuse to use
Kazza or Napster or any other P2P. i-tunes is not peer to peer.

If you patronize P2P networks you can pretty much count on being infected
with a virus or malware, no matter how much anti-this and anti-that
software
you have installed.

Along with Norton Internet Security 2005, I run Ad-Aware, Bazooka,disable
Spybot-Search and Destroy, SpywareBlaster, and Windows malicious software
removal tool at least every couple of days.
Ad-Aware occasionally finds 1 or 2 data miners in my temporary internet
files, which I remove.
Bazooka always gives a clean report (I'm wondering if it really does
anything).
I keep Spyware Blaster updated and all protection turned on.
Spybot has detected "Windows security center firewall and antivirus
notify", which I told it to ignore, plus a couple of others that Ithat
removed
when I ran it the first time. I have noticed in the Spybot ignore list
CDilla, Hitbox, and Sidestep are set to ignore. CDilla worries me, I'mand
wondering if it's associated with itunes. Does anyone know about that,
is there any reason not to uncheck the ignore option on any of these?log:
Now here's what really got my attention. Yesterday when I ran Ad-Aware
it
found the following 4 files, and this is how they were described in the
Adware.P2PNetworking object : File : C:\System VolumeInformation\_restore{D23EFF2A-BFEF-46A5-8364-D064E372DF2B}\RP126\A0014358.ex
e

I quarantined them. Is this something that would have corrupted aknowledgeable
restore
point? What can anyone tell me about these?
I know this is a lot of Q&A, so I appreciate any expertise you
people can give me.
Thanks,
Rusty
