Thanks in advance!Two things to try...

To help protect your computer in the future, I recommend that you get the following free programs:

  • SpywareBlaster to help prevent spyware from installing in the first place.
  • SpywareGuard to catch and block spyware before it can execute.
  • SiteAdvisor to GIVE you reports on which sites are safe and which ones aren't. Be sure to actually read the reports and use your on disretion, because it's not always accurate.

You should also have a good firewall. Here are 3 free ones available for personal use (use only one):And a good antivirus:It is CRITICAL to have both a firewall and anti virus to protect your system and to KEEP them updated.

To keep your operating system up to date, visit here monthly: And to keep your system clean, run these free spyware scanners weekly:
And be aware of what emails you open and websites you visit.

To learn more about how to protect yourself while on the INTERNET read this article by Tony KLEIN: So how did I get infected in the first place?

-----------------------------------

I suggest you visit the various sites and make sure these programs are compatible with your computer. Also, you should get CCleaner (without Yahoo! toolbar) and clean up with it at least once a week. We have a free guide HERE.
