AVG Anti-virus - great free anti-virus program

Keep your own Anti-virus up to date, and check the status regularly.
Get and update several Anti-spyware solutions. I use AD-AWARE and SpyBot Search & Destroy. I use the free versions from http://www.download.com Update and run these regularly. Especially IMMEDIATELY after an upexpected pop-up.
Download and install FireFox free from http://www.mozilla.com This is a browser that is safer to use than IE. Use this for general surfing and google searching. Only use IE when you MUST have IE, such as Windows Updates.
If you have Windows XP with SP2, activate the Windows firewall and check the status. If you don't, get Zone Alarm the free version from http://www.zonelabs.com
Take these steps to keep your computer ALIVE.

AVG Free is the best. But why wait until you get a virus get the anti virus on now - prevention is better than cure.......

Go to trendmicro.com. Their housecall program will do a good job of cleaning out the virus at no cost.

I would stay away from websites that claim they can disinfect your computer on line. I would stick with the free programs that can be downloaded and do an excellent job.
Good source found at

no but there are numerous programs you can use.one thing i can suggest is not putting any more of your personal info into the computer and keep it off until you get the virus off
