this error message may appear at the beginning or at any time during the time the computer is in use. And, why do I continue to get message about spyQuake virus threat?

You have a spyware porgram running on your PC. It is attempting to send information about you to the Internet. If your PC is not connected to the Internet at the time, it will give you that script error. When it is connected, that is what gives you that virus message.

Run both Ad-aware (http://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware/) and Skybot (http://www.safer-networking.org/) to remove any spyware. Run both as one may caught something the other missing. Then go to microsoft.com and download Defender to protect against future infections. All three are free.

Whatever you do, DO NOT purchase the spyQuake program. They are the ones who put the spyware on your computer and are now trying to sell you the "fix" for their own attack. Use the free cleaners listed above instead.
