message that I have "spyware."
I clicked on a song to download "free" on a site at random a very dark song of the 1980s. Studip, I knew that it would not give me this song as a free download. But what he did was pop up a message that says I should call "this number" because I "spyware" on my computer." Do I need to worry about this or ignore it?
Ignore it. It's a scam.

If I have say 10 emails saved in this folder of void, last year, last month, yesterday, etc. & then today I go in this folder to read one of these emails, sometimes & not in all my subfolders, all content of these 10 emails say exactly the same thing. He will say or read exactly how 1 10 emails wrote. Does that help explain?

get the message that I have a flow of 115 online
While im on a Web site like poker deluxe on the Trombinoscope, I get a message saying that I have a flow on line 115 what does that mean
Hello denniscombs,
The problem is related to the Web site that you use. It is not a windows problem. Contact the webmaster of the site because there is a problem with their coding that needs investigating.
See this link: http://grownupgeek.com/stack-overflow-line-115 for more information on the problem.
