>Description:
While surfing on a newsgroup (Prodigy.Net) I clicked on a link and without any question or explanation, Apache "Something" was installed in my PC.  I can not find where it is or how to remove it.  My major problem is that I no longer have access to my family picture online storage at Easynews.com.   HELP !!!!!  Please tell me how to remove this Apache 'whatever' from my computer.  Thank you.... R Joyce

PS: I saved one "Test Page" from the site I got Apache from and the next time I clicked it, I got automatically redirected to a Filthy PORN Site.  Not NICE !!!!
