My computer is vulnerable, and I get notifications of malicious spyware and adware installed. Including notifications for trojans. I also receive malicious pop-ups. How do I remove trojans, adware/spyware and viruses for no charge?

My intern created a hotmail account and he has since forgotten the id that was assigned to him (why he's an intern!)

Can anyone offer any info on if it's possible to retrieve it using the alternate email address he provided?

I'm 66 years old and do not go to these music sites so I know I didn't order any music downloads or cd's. I wouldn't even know how. Has anyone else had this happen to them?

Please can you bear in mind that the Free version is being discontinued in January '07 - therefore it will no longer work.

Just thought I'd let everyone know.

My personal recommendation for its replacement is a program called Prevx1 (http://www.prevx.com), but please feel free to answer with your own recommendations and I will award the 10 points accordingly.

What's some good anti-virus software that isn't a memory hog? AVG AntiVirus is going away in January and will not be available for free! This sucks. So what do you use to secure your computer?
My firewall is good, my anti-spyware is fine... just an antivirus software that works well...

Every few times I try to go to a new site, the browser has started (seemingly) randomly going to other pages, often random google or ebay searches, other times other search engines, usually with results for a search that has nothing to do with what I was doing. Sometimes the page that opens tells me that my computer is infected and I have to buy anti-spyware, I believe that the people who make this anti spyware also made the spyware that directed me to their page. I run spybot search and destroy and it isn't picking up anything that it doesn't get rid of or that meets this description.

I have this problem, I used these steps to turn off system restore on "Windows XP" not "Windows Me" :

1 Click Start > Settings > Control Panel.
2 Double-click System.
If the System icon is not visible, click View all Control Panel options.
3 On the Performance tab, click File System.
4 On the Troubleshooting tab, check Disable System Restore.
5 Click OK.
6 When you are asked to restart Windows, click Yes.

and now no icon on the desktop is enabled, everything is disabled including the "Start" Button..I need to turn system restore back on again...Help plz.
I'm using Windows XP
The "Start" Button is not working, it doesn't open???!!
These steps are to be used on Windows Me but I used them for Windows XP...
