Hey BFK,

I didn't create a password during installation. Should I create one and then is there a utility that will allow me to log on without have to use it every time?

Also did the "Log on auto".

Use MS Security Essentials with Win7 firewall which work perfectly together.

Avast 5 is the next best freeware choice.
