The virsus scan will scan for and kill viruses. However a firewall protects you from attacks FROM the internet into your computer.
If you are confused about what you should have, and the lowest cost for the best level of protection click to chat or send an email to sal@delello.com and I will help you figure out what you need.
Therefore I recommend that any external accessories not be purchsed from Dell, but from Buy.com or another discounter that carries the same product.
If you do not understand pricing or how to maximize the benefits of buying from Dell while saving money just send an email to sal@delello.com and I will help you maximize the return on your order.

If you are not clear ask me first and I'll let you know if its a good deal or not.
- Surplus - As they remain unsold in inventory, they are deeply discounted in bulk and end up at the surplus outlets, but the surplus items are usually those that for one reason or another did not sell well, the line was discounted or the OEM went out of business. I've gotten some grat deals on "E-Machines" for the kids to run win 98 on that were new, but were returns and had to be classified "reconditioned".
- Reconditioned - These are either returns for actual defects where something had to be done to fix a problem, but are also returns from defective consumers who just couldn't get it. Check the descriptions carefully.
- Used - Typically these are on parts, and may be called "pulls" and may have a generic description like "10/100 Ethernet NIC PCI - Name brand pulls, no drivers, exchange only" meaning, they got a surplus computer, usually so old or defective with a Network Interface Card and decided to cannablize the system and sell off the parts rather than try to sell the system as a unit. You will not know who the OEM is, but it will be a name brand so you can get the drivers off the internet. if the card does not work they will exchange it for another card. You can get a $100 3-com nic for $5.00: what the heck.
However, there is no category for these specials so you never know whether you will be interested or not until you look at the image.
Always check this link before buying a new computer or computer accessory.
This is the first step in the discounting process where substantial discounts are given for items that are only a few months old. Many times you will find items listed here at a discount that are still offered at full price at conventional mortar and brick stores. These are Pre-Surplus items and will include top brands and products.
I have also been able to return an item purchased online to the local store with no hassle. I found this to be a compelling reason to buy from Walmart, but if anyone ever has a problem with an online return to the store, please let me know ASAP.
