Downloading from the net.

We all know that there is a possibility of virus infection when downloading from the internet. However, there is a very simple way to avoid this...Once the program is downloaded go to the folder to which it was saved...left click on the program icon to highlight it. Then click on "File" in windows explorer(Top Left Corner) and from the dropdown menu select "Scan with" (and then it will say your anti virus program) click on this and it will scan only the highlighted program and depending on the AV nullify any Virus or at least alert you to it thus pallowing you to delete the file or whatever your choice is, thereby avoiding infection.
