Ronnie,  nice to hear from

Ronnie,  nice to hear from you again!

Why didn't you mention this link to YouTube before. 

I've just watched it and it looks simple enough.  My one comment would be change EVERYTHING into English.  Its all perfectly understandable to you, but spare a thought for us idiots who only speak good and bad English (thats probably most of the world!)

Yeah i understand that,

Yeah i understand that, however my windows 7 was hungarian, now i have the english version for more tutorials, however, thank you for the tip.

I'm glad to hear that this video helped!

If someone has any question, I will post back!

Now I'm trying to regain my points...

And my question: Wich part was the non-understandable? The one with the antivirus or the Yes-No (Igen-Nem)part at the program? Or maybe something else?

And today i need to learn for two exams wich are tomorrow, but i will upload a video tomorrow.
