Answer 1

What's up,

I'm betting that you have a serious spyware problem.  This can be a very pesky thing to have on  your computer.

I've personally gone through a couple of computers now due to serious spyware and adware infections.  Once the spyware get's settled, it invites all of it's pesky relatives.  Spyware open's your computer up to adware, malware, and trojan infections.

This can make it very hard to totally erradicate.  I've read that it hides in all of your files and legit programs, and can be nearly impossible to totally get rid of.

I've also read that it is a lot cheaper, and a whole lot easier to just prevent spyware.  

I asked my computer guy about it, and he told me to check out this website http://www.honestspywarereview.com .  

I picked the number one spyware program to help keep my computer free of harmful programs.  It picked up 20 parasites on it's first scan.  And continues to keep my computer clean.

If you suspect that your computer is infected with spyware, I would highly suggest that you get it fixed today.  Because if you don't, you might end up having to buy a new computer like I did.  Twice.

It is rogue security software! It is basically a virus itself and can be very annoying! I recommend going to www.avast.com and downloading the home edition which is free, and update it and then scan your computer for infections! Be careful what you download for now on! Good Luck!!

i'm no expert but those programs usually take up a whole lot of memory just to run in the background, just watch what you do on the internet and you should have no reason to really need virus software or firewall protection and usually what helps is read before you press ok or accept so you know what you are downloading to your computer. :P
