I know its been a couple of months. GMail did some updates to their mail program over the last several months and I just actually saved all their emails to the Computer folder on the hard drive.
I don't know if there were any Norton updates or Windows updates recently but I will take better track of them.
Question: If I leave a thumb drive on a computer (linked in or whatever) will that cause problems? Should I do a virus scan as well?
ETA:
Did a scan for the thumb drive its fine. Currently running a full scan on the computer...started nearly two hours ago...its still going. found and cleared out two risks (cookies or something).

Windows Error reporting.
I got one of these this evening...
I hope it isn't because of all the emails I have been saving in groups...I guess I can do a scan...
I had two more crashes. Executable something. I am not sure what that meant. The Full system scan is going on right now. I will probably have to the updates and more virus scans.
The full system scan was still going on at 10:24 pm...This is an awfully long time. I haven't looked at the updates but maybe I can do it some time after work tomorrow.
The scan was completed at 11:28 and no problems were found. Tomorrow I will do updates and stuff like that.

Have some questions
Things with the computer are good-knock on wood. Still combining emails to save space (or so I think).
Do have questions: why does the players whether its the Real player or windows constantly buffer or stop. Its annoying.

What to do when emails are hacked
Earlier
this week my niece emily’s email account had been hacked and as a
result many in her contact list was sent an email with a link in it.
The first thing I did was email her and text ehr to see if she was
aware and she was. I suggested she had to change her password. After I
thought about it I wasn’t sure what else had to be done until I saw this this
morning. I then discovered it has more in depth steps. Something that
makes me anxious. I want something like the above link to be quick and
easy and usually its not so easy and quick. Of course I will save them
to the hard drive when time permits.

Learned something new this week
This past week I was experimenting on how to save multiple emails all together. If there is a subject or threads of discussions you find them and save them and they are all saved in one text document. I think it may save on document making and memory and stuff like that.
