Ran the Symantec Security Check Virus detection from the Yahoo Security site and the virus detecttion results came back showing 3 files infected. I then ran the AT&T Yahoo online protection anti-virus program and it came back no viruses found. How do I remove the C:\WINDOWS\virtualDNS.DLL infected with Trojan horse?

Is it possible to remain anonymous while using free wi-fi access spots? That is to say,:
a) Do I need to divulge any personal information to the wi-fi provider, and
b) Assuming I have a used laptop that has no software registered in my name, can anyone trace an IP address to me?

I DONT view porn/adult sites on the internet, nor does anyone from my family. However, I sometimes get from friends/relations, some pictures of family members (no sexual content), nature, e greetings, etc.
Now I find that I suddenly get warning pop ups which say that there is a security danger as I have visited some adult/porn sites, etc. and offers free scan. This free scan is mostly from 'Ultimate Defender', and lists a large no. of dangerous items affecting my computer. Of course they ask for a fee to download their scan program.
This sudden pop up creates serious misunderstandings within the family as we all use only one computer that runs on XP.
I scan my computer daily twice with Windows Defender, Spybot Search and Destroy, and Ad-aware SE. I remove any objectionable spyware/malware/trojan etc. they recommend.
Is there anyway I can get rid of this notice from Ultimate Defender? Is their scan/notice genuine?
Only genuine experts reply, please. Thanks.

And adult websites keep popping up eventhough we have our pop up blocker on. Also we keep getting notices for spyware downloads about trojans.
