Your Alienware system is clean

Thank you so much Gecko! You are awesome!

While on the subject of Keylogger's.... Have one question to ask.

If you copy paste your password can they still get your account? I'm hoping not but at the present time I'm not sure of anything anymore!

Thanks again for checking over my information and finding what I was not sure of!
