I was told today by a friend that my computer has been sending them viruses through msn messenger
(they were told this by a computer tech guy)
I'm not sure what to do to stop my computer from sending viruses out.  Can anyone help me?Uninstall Messenger, AIM, any P2P stuff and you should be good with proper preventive maintenance.

AdAware
Spybot
AVG AntiVirus

All free, just google for them.so once the cleaning is done its SAFE to install my messengers again?Yes. As long as you have up-to-date virus and Spyware protection, as well as a FIREWALL, you are safe. I have 3 messengers running at once. No issues. Virus protection will catch anything FUNNY. Good luck, and come back and see us if you have any more questions!
