12/8/2012 7:51:16 PM I'm no computer geek, but I know this computer could work as well as it did the day I bought it. Could you help me keep this computer working without the freezes/lock up and unneeded programs and files that doesn't go away when you delete from the system? I also worry that when I use my card that someone could grab that number and still my money/identity! Thank you for this program and my hope is that you use what I have given you to benefit all users of your system! God Bless America and Our Constitution and Freedoms!
