I did not know that! I use Avira AntiVir which updates daily. If I run a complete system scan, I highly doubt my laptop will stay functioning long enough to complete it. I usually run one monthly and it is due for a scan, so I can try.
BTW, I have Windows XP.

Thanks Shel! Should I call the store or your cell?

The area of the keyboard where the fan is feels much warmer than the rest of the laptop. Now it's making a slight vibrating noise. I hope I tightened everything up well enough, when I closed it back up.
