System encountered spyware that collects your personal information without your consent. This information includes passwords, credit card details and other private data. Click the icon to learn more ways to protect your files.

Though there is a McAfee Anti Virus in my system this message kept on reoccuring even when I have undergone scanning time and time and again.

Please help!!!

My computer is letting in some spyware, so I've been thinking it's the firewall. And I go to my control panel and then firewall, but it's locking me out and I can't touch anything on my firewall. Is that fixable?? How?? Also, is there a way I can search for the files it's letting in??

One of my Yahoo! 360 friends sent me an invite today saying that her email account had been hacked so she got a new profile. I have no idea if that is her or the hacker, who guessed her password, because we're not that close.

What can you do to prevent someone from guessing your password? I do change mine every so often but is this enough?

Should I remove this friend and deny the invite? Is my account at risk?

I just installed AVG and did a virus scan, I had some trojan horses and they were sent to the virus vault. Now am I supposed to click "Empty Vault"? Does that mean that they get deleted, or that they just get returned to my computer?

(i'm sure that's a dumb question, but i'm a dumb person.)

I am going to install something new because right now I am using a security suite that is offered for free by my internet provider and it does not seem to be working well. What do you recommend I use? What is the best out there and why do you say that it is?
I have heard that AVG is good and it is free... but I am willing to pay for the best so that my computer will run normally. Please give me good reasons on why I should use the product you recommend. Thank you.

First, let's disgard the obvious browser-related stuff (e.g. "Don't use IE, u luser") and get to the meat...

Let's say I start a web site and am able to justify advertising on it. Instead of peddling my site directly to advertisers, I arrange a business relationship with an organization (e.g. Google Ads) to provide advertising on my site for a cut of the click-thru-traffic pie.

How do I know that they won't present ads which in and of themselves install malware on my audiences' machines?

I'm not talking about when a user clicks-thru, I'm talking about a situation where the HTML for the ad itself includes an ActiveX control that installs spyware or other malware on the user's machine.

Is there a way that I, as the website owner, can automagacially check the included ads to ensure they don't have malware? or do I just have to trust the outsourcer/have it in the contract and make sure I can collect on breach of contract (e.g., don't go offshore for my outsourcer)?

when surfing adult websites, is there still a way for a malicious file to be installed without my approval? usually, imo, people get worms or viruses because they click "ok" on a fake popup box. but i could be wrong. i have firefox with popup blocker, noscript and flashblock extension. i clear cookies after i'm finished browsing. are those pretty much safeguards?
