I never used web washer - however I do use google's free address bar/pop-up
blocker and am quite happy with it
to clean the system I use Clean-up and Scotty (WinPatrol) watches over it
all. I have WinPatrol set so no cookies are saved as it doesn't bother me to
have to sign in everytime I visit a site that needs so.
In my humble opinion ya can't beat AVAST! as a antivirus haven't had a
problem since I installed it with AVG I did now and again. I finially paid for
it because I thought they deserved it.
My P-4 2.4 XP-Pro sings and with cable my internet speed was near 6,000 down
and 350 up last I checked so it is all good enough for me. speed was inportant
for me a few years back as I did online gaming but been a while since I did
that (maybe I grew up?. . . . NAH!) so i am quite content now.

STILL XP but a different Edition. As to slowwww??? I think what's slowing
this one down is the Norton 2006.. It always used to before when I used it.
It was installed in this one at purchase time. I didn't want to go online
empty handed and I had two choices.. one was Norton and one was Mc
Afeeeeeeee--NOT!! in the set up package ..so I went Norton. and at THAT I
had to reinstall it.. LOL. but at least it's working. Other than THAT???
nothing too weird..
