Answer 3

Update your anti-virus, remember to only have one anti-virus installed on your PC

http://www.avast.com/eng/download-avast-...  [Free home edition]

Download SuperAntiSpyware

Restart your PC in safe mode, and run a full scan with both.

While in safe mode, you may also want to have a look at your start up items by using msconfig.

Be careful with the items you uncheck, you can have a look here to see if they are necessary

You should also have a look at your IE Add-ons while in safe mode.

Disable any you do not use.

After you reboot back to normal mode, download and install ccleaner to fix any registry problems and clean up old temp files.

Answer 4

first download a anti-virus from phazeddl.com (including crack for free)

karsperky is the best but also making the pc move slower. use avast is a good anti-virus (that i had)  and make a skan in your pc.. Also download spyware doctor better v5.1 cause the news can install directly!!

Answer 5

Its hard to say without knowing what virus you have, what the best course of action would be. Certain viruses have specific removal tools and instructions. Do not bother with avg, avast and other run of the mill programs, they are not good for removal of viruses once they have taken hold

I would suggest you download the 90 day free trial of windows onecare live, run a tune up when it downloads this will include a scan for viruses

Answer 6

assuming you don't have antivirus software - go to Symantec.com and run their virus descovery tool.  If it identifies a virus they should have a virus removal tool to do the job.  They offer a paid service but the stuff I've just mentioned is free (if a little manual).  THEN go buy some decent AV software - to many mean people out there
