  1. I have used AVG Anti Virus, Zone Alarm Firewall, Spy-bot Search and Destroy and Ad Aware both spyware killers for years. They are all free for personal use and I have had no trouble with Viruses Trojans Hackers etc. I have just upgraded to AVG free 8.0 and all seems good so far. Zone Alarm allows a lot of personal configuration unlike the Windows Firewall. They can all be downloaded from http://www.download.com/ I also use Windows Defender from the Microsoft site. It is safe to use two anti-spy products but never use more than one A/V as it can cause conflicts. You should run A/V and anti spy weekly. Hope this helps


  2. Vista Antivirus 2008 is a new version of rogue anti-spyware program that simulates malware detections on your computer, generating false alerts to try to trick you into buying the “full version” of this dangerous program. Vista Antivirus 2008 is a new clone of well known XP Antivirus malware. Vista Antivirus 2008 can download and install other adware and spyware, without your consent. Vista Antivirus 2008 program can be very difficult to remove manually, and will try to recreate itself.

    use manual removal instructions

  3. You are probably have adware or spyware on your machine. I recommend spybot search and destroy and adware6.0 or higher.  If not search for some toolbars for your browser that blocks them.
