Safe Mode
I thought it was best to run Mcafee virus scan in safe mode-also adaware, spybot etc. I noticed in safe mode that even if the icon near the clock is red the security center says virus scan protection is 'disabled'. This may be b/c my connection to the internet is not working when in safe mode-I don't know.
Please send me an opinion. Thank you. Win xp sp2, hispeed internet connection.

lots of things don't work in safe mode. Unless you're trying to fix a problem there's no point in using it. Run your security stuff in regular mode, that's the way its meant to work.
