Doug,

 DC> Ha!  No worries, thats my every morning prior to a few cups of coffee.

  You can drink an extra cup for me. I never acquired a taste for it, but
am currently drinking diet green tea citrus...over a half gallon a day. Tea
is a diuretic, but better for me than carbonated beverasges.

  That was the first one I used.

  There were a lot of false positives with Norton's. And, most anti-virus
programs throw a fit if they detect another anti-virus deal on the system.
The only one I've seen that does not throw a fit is the Sophos Anti-Virus
software.

  I had to get rid of Firefox. Something this last Windows 10 update did, 
Firefox would never load after a reboot. Plus, it kept crashing when I was
on Facebook. And, I surely don't want to use Microsoft Edge.
