  It seems there's more than one issue for me;
    1 - I had a virus
    2 - There are outsiders attempting to logon to my machine
    3 - The 'Installer' is damaged (I had to uninstall my antivirus, and am not able to install it again).
    4 - The virtual machine I had was out of date, the new one leaves me with many more empty boxes that should be images.

Seems as though computers get faster and faster, but the same amount of work is completed because so much time is dedicated to chasing flaws.
