Go to pcpitstop.com and run their full pc tune-up.
To run an online virus/spyware scan go to Trend Micro's Housecall.
Or if you want to download a FREE antivirus program then there's AVG FREE and AVAST.
Two Free spyware programs are Spybot and Adaware.
I'll provide links to each below :o)

an extablished and reputable site that checks your PC over the internet, for free.
just click the options for 'new members' to run anonymously
works best with IE, but there is a plug in to run it on firefox.....you cant run it from an AOL, or Opera browser window

If you're worried something is on your computer, there is a Hijack This forum which you can get an experienced person to check out what's lurking on your computer and help you fix any problems....that's free too!

Hello rkilburn410, I have a Macintosh computer and Mac OS X has a built-in spellchecking capability. Doesn't Windows? I know that Microsoft Word has it. --Rick

Yes - AVG Anti-Virus: download free at http://free.grisoft.com/doc/avg-anti-virus-free/lng/us/tpl/v5
For free anti-spyware: http://free.grisoft.com/doc/20/lng/us/tpl/v5
You might want to acquire a firewall, if you haven't already got one, to prevent further attacks.

You can try the McAfee products for 30 days, they also have a Free Scan product that you can use to check your computer.

avg, spybot search & destroy and ad-aware are all freely available. avg is anti-virus and the last two are spyware detection programs.
