I may as well use it right? Do I wait for the Norton to run out? Can I load the Mcafee when the Norton is still in there?

I use Norton Antivirus 2007. I have been having problems with my computer for a few days, so I started it in Safe Mode and ran a full system scan. I deleted all of the files that came up, and shut my computer down and restarted. I logged on under my regular account and the computer still isn't running correctly. It's sluggish and slow and I keep getting random popups, so I ran another virus scan. It's scanning really really slow, and I don't understand why the computer runs fine in safe mode and decides to stop working once I log on normally. Can someone tell me how to correct this problem?

I opened a PDF attachment from an email that I thought was from my friend (had a similar email address), but it turns out it was spam.

Before I opened it, Yahoo mail said it scanned it and it had no virus.

Is there anything else to worry about, like spyware or keystroke logger thingamajigs? =D The PDF was for some stock offering thing.

e-mails can be traced. In fact, e-mails all have hidden tags that they come with which reveal their path and source through the internet. This can be revealed under options settings on most e-mails accounts.
how can someone else do this to someone else account? please tell me is this true????????

I was told you should shut it off AND unplug your CPU simultaneously everyday before going to work to prevent hackers. Even if it is "shut off" or in "standby" mode, hackers can still read your hard drive and mess with it - Is this true?

I was on a train in Belgium and my laptop bag was in front of me. Then, I felt something fall behind my back on my seat, so I turned around to give it back to the person behind me. It was a cellphone, so I gave it back. Then the person behind me said that he dropped something else, so while I was looking, his partner may have snatched the laptop from in front of me?

Is this likely? Have you ever heard of this? This is what I think happened to me.
