I googled for 'antivirus Jaunty' KDE, if I remember correctly, and did not get 
the results you described.

First I tried, kdesudo apt-get install do_not_hijack_threads.deb, then I tried 
sudo apt-get install do_not_hijack_threads.deb, both returned "couldn't find 
the package".  If it is wget, I have not used that, but will look it up.  
KpackageKit doesn't have it either.

I also tried to download, Klamov, but I couldn't get a connection, and I can't 
figure out a way to connect.  I think the virus has also stopped connection to 
ISP and the Internet.  I am using a direct connection too, because the router 
has stopped functioning.  I got my laptop able to work well enough to connect 
to the internet, but the do_you_not...... package can not be found either.

This problem is not as fun as usual.  I was trying to help that guy, and he 
creates new grief at a time when I have important needs for my computer and 
the internet.  Thanks for trying, friend.

Steven
