I need some computer help!?

Question

I have a lot of pop-ups on my computer, it gets SO annoying.

I need a good virus protector

What should I download?

and yes, I already have one, but I cant use it because I forgot the password to it.. Will that be a problem too?

Answer 1

Use ESET smart security... it has a firewall to and do a complete system scan.. restart the system after that...

that should solve the problem....

Answer 2

A very good, free anti-virus available to download is AVG 8 Anti-virus:

And for any spyware problems, get SpyBot - Search and Destroy:

Also, for protecting your personal info and files, use Ad-Aware 2008 Free Edition:

All of them are free, as powerful as paid programs, like Norton and McAfee, and don't use up as many resources.

Just boot into Safe Mode (Press F8 when turning on the computer) and run full scans.

Hope that helps.

Answer 3

I have Trend Micro Security, and it works really good.

It can scan everything and fixes it.

I hope this helps.

Answer 4

get the firefox web browser.....

popups have nothing to do with viruses

Answer 5

Get AVG and Spybot Search & Destroy. Also get Windows Defender.

They're all great.
