Got An Updated McAfee

From a gold box deal on Amazon! $21.00 with shipping! I got it today and installed it, (which took over two hours), and at first I was very unhappy with it. I had gotten in the hope that the computer would run faster, and that I would get rid of that virus that was sending Spam mail to people on my old email account.

At first it was even slower then before, significantly slower, like ten minutes slower. Then it came up with a message saying program snap-max. . . something like that wasn't running and the computer rebooted it's self. The computer is now running at a good speed.

I think one of the reason it took so long to load was because I couldn't get the old McAfee to uninstall. I got the virus scanner part gone and another part as well,, but the message center wouldn't uninstall. The install wizard had an option for pressing on and I chose that, because, what else could I do? Hopefully everything is running correctly.

Went to the Social Security. No one is using my benefits. Also got a credit check. There was two addresses on there that I had never lived at, and two closed accounts for a store that I was sure I had only one at. But they were both closed and paid off. . .

Got the false addresses taken off. The credit report said high fraud alert, I think because of that.

I tried to file a police report but the wait was two hours. will try again.

Have come to conclusion that the thief has a house key, (*yes, extra keys were hidden in bedroom), and I get to buy yet another lock.

Will do that tomorrow.
