I’ll be honest here… You guys probrably don’t recall when I mentioned in a previous post of my Win98 machine crashing out after I ran avast on it. And also stated that it was almost as if the powersupply had magically failed.

Well the funny thing is is that despite all the years I had that computer and delt with the viruses/trojans/ & worms cause I never ever ran a virus utility on it at all I still to this day carry much disbelieve that my powersupply magically , convientally quit when I ran avast on it .

I , for some reason feel as though if your system is ran over with viruses/trojans/ & worms then you might want to think a little slower when just deciding to rip the problems out all at once as , I the average Joe thought . THeres nothing to say that one of the viruses/trojans/ or worms that were on my old 98 machine wasn’t something that would’ve killed my powersupply,harddrive , etc…
The same goes for anyone else , they unless very well educated in all this stuff would allow any anti-virus utility to just delete the infected file. Of which may or may not be a file that the system relies on in order to run properly.
