Time for a new free virus scanner - advice?

[Buster's Uncle]

I don't even know - Mylochka said it was a good deal, and I said go for it.  My little brother did the ordering.  It may not come until tomorrow, but I'll report back when I lay hands on it.

[Buster's Uncle]

...I asked Mylochka what it was, and she doesn't recall.  Will report - apparently tomorrow, since I think they won't deliver tonight...

BU's New Machine Hostage Crisis, Day Two

Nerdwatchers all over are a-quiver with anticipation, while insiders claim the hapless tubes personality and tiny forum owner is "beside himself" after a second day of no delivery.  "His machine sucks and he's tired of the thing burning off his time and keeping him from taking care of business," a source close to the 51 year-old hermit claimed.

-Why a man too dim to know it's not pronounced "bidness" would have told friends such a thing was unknown at press time, as was what the deal is with UPS drivers thinking they can park anywhere they want to, the middle of a busy street, between two cars in an imaginary space with four inches clearance on each side, they just don't seem to care.  Whomever hasn't delivered could not be reached for comment.

It's an HP!  Bouncing Baby Computer Delivered at 12 :43 EDT

Forgive  me if I don't bring up the system specs right away - lots of setup crap to take care of.

NOTE: none of the buttons over the replay page seem to work; I keyed in the bold code above...  I NEED the buttons working, Draz...  It brought up the smiley popup lightning-fast, but clicking on those isn't working, either.  -Obviously a default setting problem in the browser; it's that new W10 default one on the taskbar and I don't even know how to bring up the main menu yet and look at Help - somebody please advise...

[Buster's Uncle]

Found IE, the buttons work in IE and I seem to be able to find stuff in it, though a new version that does display the new site icon, finally. 

I probably ought to learn that new browser they're forcing down all the new lUser's throats, though...

[Buster's Uncle]

Wow.  It's been YEARS since I was seeing pageloads this fast...

[Buster's Uncle]

Well, I still say screw the new OS, having to learn the new OS, having to port multi-gigabytes of stuff off my old machine - but man, Poly pages load fast on this new machine in IE - and for MONTHS I'd been having to boot the Great Satan Firefox to browse there at all...

I'd forgotten what browsing at a decent speed was like.  I'm so happy...

[Buster's Uncle]

I need to find the settings for hibernation - it's doing it after 10 or 15 minutes afk, and no; just no.  And to turn off wasting my time asking for a password - I don't need the security.

[Buster's Uncle]

Okay - I took a screenie of the specs -it's a bunch of noise to me- but can't find stinking MSPaint or anything to paste it into, nor any way to search for stuff, so I don't know how to save it to post, and have no intention of downloading anything just for this when I should have the old hard drive plugged in as an external tomorrow...

MS Paint is now just called Paint. To get to it, I just press the windows key then type "paint".

To get to the power and sleep settings, press the windows key and type "sleep", look for something called "Power and sleep".

Told you a new computer would be better

[Buster's Uncle]

Found those settings yesterday -but not Paint- but I'd still like to turn off having to log onto the machine in the morning, as that's a time sink.

Wow.  I popped open the case of my old machine last night, and the hard drive is going to be a girldog to get at - but I already went to post a 6 avatar this morning before I realized.  I need to get this done.

[DrazharLn]

To sign in without a password you need to find the accounts settings. Searching "manage account" gets it for me.

[Buster's Uncle]

Okay.  Paint turned right up.

Here you go...

[Buster's Uncle]

Searching that googled it - on Bing, in MSEdge.

[DrazharLn]

By searching I mean just press the windows key and type it. Or go to the start menu and type it. Same thing.

If you'd rather look through the menus, just go to the start menu and press settings.

Processor is good and you've got a decent amount of RAM. Can't say any more based on that info, though. Should be good enough, though
