I have three computers and want to set up a password for my kid's comuter BEFORE they can enter anything. Can I do this? How do I set up a password once windows begins and before they get into their own accounts? Is this possible? Let me know.

i dont really remember how this spyware got into my PC but certainly it was when i was connected to the internet. it was i think a week before. at first i thought there was nothing when suddenly, a message appears saying i have a spyware on my PC and that i should download a spyware remover. however, friend told me that it's the spyware itself that keeps on poppong up telling me that message. i wouldn't have mind if it only shows up everytime i oepn my computer but then it's like every two minutes. it really is annoying esepecially when i'm working on something important. and then i also keep seeing ads about spyware removers. i just couldn't trust these sites. help please. . . . .thanks.

I have deleted many files on my PC until today, but I know that they are not totally erased and still recoverable, even after formatting.

I need a free program that will find these formerly deleted files and ERASE THEM PERMANENTLY without any trace.

Do you know of any?

P.S. I don't need a file shredder etc. that can erase an undeleted file permanently. I need a program that finds the files that have been deleted before, and destroys all traces.

I've always used Norton Antivirus as it came free when I first bought my computer, but I'm wondering if there are better and cheaper options out there. Anyone with knowledge out there?

Everytime I try to download it, it only gets half way through the installation before it stops. When it does stop, I get this error box saying 'Access denied'. Do you know why? Because I can't seem to figure it out and it's really starting to frustrate me.

Hi, this isn't a joke. I've got a seriously mentally ill partner, and sometimes the only way I can cope is to go on a website support site in America, to talk to others who have partners with these mind disorders. What have I done? You guessed it! I wrote a letter to the support site, and sent it to him instead. He could get really ill or dangerous if he reads what I've written about him in what I thought was secure safety. Can anyone please help me before he wakes up? Thankyou.
