Carl:

I don't have any knowledge beyond what I posted.  The post said that Lenovo fixed the problem so I
presume this was a problem during a specific period of time.  Perhaps if you google you can find
more info.  I only posted it because the TP comes with either Linux or Windows and I assumed some
users kept the installed OS and added eCS to the drive by shrinking the partition.

The way I read it, this applies only to Windows and doing a maintenance upgrade (patch) from
Lenovo.  

Yesterday I ran the update from Lenovo on my XP partition and then scanned with the latest AVG
definitions and it came up clean.
