Computers & Internet - 6 August 2007

my computer is about 1 year old and one day a threat started coming out. then when we went to delete it it was a tracking cookie
almost every time we do the full system scan it comes out and even after we delete it, it still comes out.
is it something bad because my dad goes on his bank accont and stuff so im scared they might get his info and number.
also what is a good program that i can use to get rid of it permanently?
i heard spy sweeper was good
please let me know!

Had no problem with Stretchmame on Xp after I had used the compatability option. However with Vista there is a problem because the line marked "Default Options" is greyed out. This means that I can't set the default controller i.e. gamepad. I am guessing that this can be cured by altering the "properties" but which ones to alter ? Help would be much appreciated.

I was on the computer and accidently pressed and held the control button thinking it was the shift button. Then, I went to another page and the font was bigger, too big. How can I put the font back to the regular size?

It's a picture of a white bear or dog. There is a red X that keeps flashing on and off over it. When I put the cursor on it no information is revealed as it does when I put the cursor over the icons.

I have an eMachines PC which I purchased back in 2001. It has a 600 Mhz Celeron processor in it currently, and over the past few years, I've upgraded the RAM and hard drives to turn it into a fairly nice PC. It has always been very reliable, so I don't see any reason to buy a new one if I could just upgrade the processor in mine. I realize that system bus will limit how fast this PC will operate, but I have also heard that their are limitations on the maximum speed that could be installed, even if you're using the correct CPU format (slot 1, socket 370, etc.). Anybody know how to determine the fastest CPU that I could install in this PC? I know mine is a socket 370, and they make Celeron socket 370's all the way up to 1.4 Ghz, but I don't know if my system would accept a 1.4 Ghz CPU?

Thanks!
