Hello all, I'm currently having serious issues with my Dell laptop. It freezes shortly after it has loaded up and a McAfee warning comes up saying "Buffer Overflow: Allow or Block". I have tried both options with no luck. A minute after the warning comes up, there is a loud beep and then the whole screen freezes. The only thing I can think of that might of caused this problem is my latest music download off of Limewire. McAfee has blocked many Trojan viruses from Limewire for me in the past, but perhaps this time it was different? I am typing this from my other computer. Any help is appreciated.
