>>Hi everybody,

>>What are the Windows 7 recommended malware and virus protection tools? I installed MS Security Essentials and also ran MS Security Scanner (the one you have to re-download every 10 days).

>>Basically, what happened is yesterday when I was installing stuff I decided to also install Skype. I got to the very first link after searching by Google (don't remember what it was) and when I was installing it, I remember it asked me to accept lots of times. I didn't pay much attention (!) and accepted all of this.

>>At the end I got Skype and a bunch of other crap. Through Programs and Features I uninstalled all of these extra stuff, but now I am not certain that my new PC is OK.

I went back to the previous image backup :( I was not very careful to do it after every install, so I would have to re-install SQL Server again, VS 2013 again, SOS.

I will leave Skype to be the last to install - do you know the safe place to get it?
