When I log in to my myspace account, I type in my username, password and then my computer puts up this little box that says, buffer overrun protection microsoft c++ or something, and then it says something about the internal state could be corrupt or whatever....how do i fix this?! I am so dense about computers so please be patient about telling me what to do....I just want to log in to myspace successfully without my computer completely closing the internet on me again!

I have recently become infected with this malware virus that sets off random MS explorer pages with some blank and some with fake adverts. Windows defender sees it but can't delete it as I believe it is memory resident. This virus is a real pain and so far no solution except a rebuild. Any suggestions pse? Any software that maybe might clean it ?

that has installed itself in my computer without my permission?

Why did this other scanner install without my knowledge, is there a virus in my computer that made it install without my permission?

I'm confused!

I have a "guest" staying with me and she accesses all her bulk mail from my computer...She opens "everything" and responds to most everything. Also she has 1077 junk mails saved. My computer is "freezing" and doing all sorts of weird stuff. Also my accounts on myspace are being "phished" alot.. Would her opening this junk mail cause these problems?

I recently recieved an email from a person who is says that he is a bank accountant and says that a person died and has left me some money because i share some sort of distance relationship as him (he said that we share the same last name). What struck me the most suspicious was that he never told me the persons name, and whats more suspicous, is that his mail was a yahoo account, but my reply was to a gmail account.

Im planning on seeing if he will give me the name, plus the persons race (because my display name is different from my real name, and my real name is of a different origin even though i am of a completely different race). And when he starts to dip out, I have to report it.


Some questions i was wondering is:

1. When you die, does your money go to the next of kin?
2. If i do report it, How do i know that i got a response?

Ok so I looked on google for a free download of fire fox. I used this one.

http://www.firefox-25.de/

But I don't think this is a good one. I think this site is a phising site because once I downloaded it. ALL THIS CRAP WAS ON!

And also I keep getting gay popups and on my google popup blocker it says 33770 POP UPS BLOCK!

HOLAY CRAP!

Can any of you please give me a link to a good firefox download please?

I will give you 10 points to the best answer!

I cannot view any videos on youtube or mlgpro gaming. I am thinking this has something ot do with my firewall, because I had problems with it blocking several applications in the past. Also, there should be a "turn off personal firewall" option in the firewall menu, but it is not there. I have the same the installed on my mom's laptop and the option shows up there, but not on my laptop. BTW I am using IE7
