You will need an antivirus, an antispyware, and a firewall on your pc. In case you do not have, here is a suggestion.
AVG free antivirus, Ewido(Now called AVG free antispyware), Zonealarm free firewall.

Did you know you can get this thing called a FIREWALL and this other thing called a VIRUS SCAN and this other thing called ANTISPYWARE? And did you know that if you had these things and kept them updated and LEARNED the correct ways to use them that you would never have a problem like this? Did you know it is not just recommended but a MUST? Did you know if you go online unprotected, you're gonna get pregnant!?!?!? good luck to ya and your wallet! :-) 40 bucks then would've saved you HOW MUCH now?
Anytime you download a file, it's up to YOU to SCAN IT BEFORE YOU OPEN/PLAY it!!!!! You MUST scan every file you download FIRST, BEFORE you click on it and open it up. Learn to do this everytime and you will never ever get infected! You can download a file from Limewire or your Grandma, but SCAN it first... You can't get infected unless you invite it in! If you open a file without scanning it then you're giving it permission to release whatever it wants to on your computer. Why would you do this when you can just simply scan it first and make sure it's okay. Boggles my mind. good luck :-)

type free AVG. grisoft.com in the google search bar.. when you get 2 the site, look 4 the one that ends in the paragraph with grisoft.com.. download it and run a scan.. the scan can take up to an hour.. but well worth it.. it stops pop ups and protects your computer like a mean dog : )

hi, you can also use a more secure browser to protect your PC against virus for free.
i recommand you to use firefox with Google toolbar. firefox can disable all virus to run, because the virus can only run on IE.
besides, firefox can block any any poppus and disable any virus and adware, spyware on webpage, so, firefox is much safer than IE. as you know, most of the virus is spread throught internet and webpage.
firefox is much smaller than IE, so i run faster than IE.
download firefox for free:

Norton Systemworks was on sale at compusa at $99 with a $99 mail in rebate.. so its practically free.. except for the stamp you have to put to mail the rebate.
