I keep getting an AOL spyware update window. I update it then I'm asked to reboot the computer.

Then another update comes on the following day and again the next day. Now I just press cancel instead of update.

How can I get the problem sorted? Please don't say get rid of it as I'm keeping AOL. I don't get any other problems apart from that and that has only been recently.

Please help if you can.

I spent $80.00 last night for this program I ran across on the internet and I think it was a scam.I received my confirmation email receipt with a couple of web addresses to go to for support or to see the users manual.The web addresses don't seem to be valid. In the little security info box that pops up and gives the option of running or saving the program it said the file didn't have a some kind of signature and the computer couldn't trace where it came from.

In my family I'm the computer administrator, and I just put a password on my account. I haven't forgotten the password, but it won't let me put in the full password. I made it long so no one else could get it, and when I was creating the password it didn't say it was too long. It was only 14 letters long, but it will only let me put in 12. Any advice on how to get around it? The other users only have limited accounts.

My pc gets infected with malware and so far the junk keep coming back. My concern right now is to change/update the host file (c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc), but without success even under safe mode. The access is denied and it complains of being used by another process. (how can that be even under safe-mode?)
Anyone know how please? Help is so appreciated :)

Every time I open an email, nothing shows up on the page (just a blank space). And on the the lower left bar of the browser, it says "Error on Page" and that my ActiveX controls wont let me read the page properly. I already checked my security and activex settings, but nothing has worked. ActiveX works fine in other website, its only Yahoo email thats giving me the problem. Please help me because I need to desperately read my emails!!
