Answer 1

You definately need to format your computer and re-install your operating system. I would recommend that you purchase Norton or McAfee antivirus, and pay for the subscription service. Without current antivirus signatures, you are wide open to new threats. Also, if running Windows, make sure it has all of the current Windows updates installed. Enable automatic updates too, if your Internet connection is "always on." It's also best to stay away from pornograpy, gambling, and other questionable websites. Never open e-mail attachments from unknown sources, and be suspicious of attachments from known sources.

NOTICING YOUR CPU IS MAXED OUT AT a hundred%,I consider the different ANSWERER approximately LOOSING between the ANTI-VIRUS courses.i in my opinion USE MCAFEE VIRUSCAN AND ITS source intake is extremely LOW.i might stick to MCAFEE.the only different factor i might recommend AND there'll be ALOT OF SNIFFLERS obtainable as quickly as I SAY it somewhat is TO DROP FIREFOX AND only USE internet EXPLORER.in case you have each and all of the PATCHES AND UPDATES FOR IE,i think of it remains the best BROWSER AND DOESNT % ALL those annoying PLUG-INS AT each turn once you % to DO something NEW.FIREFOX LAGS in spite of the undeniable fact that it variety of sounds like A swifter BROWSER AND it somewhat is,IT makes use of much extra components THAN IE.those PLUG-INS upload UP AND SLOWLY HANDCUFF THE BROWSER ITSELF.THATS MY OPINION.i exploit IE6 AND IE7 and function HAD NO issues AND NO protection LEAKS yet.try THE swap your self and notice IF there's a distinction.I wager there'll be an substantial overall performance advance WITH basically MCAFEE AND IE working.stable success.

Sounds like you don't have any security at all in your pc. No antivirus or antispyware programs.

Here are a list of all the program I have in both of my compuers. The antivirus program from Beijing, China is used in my backup pc. As you can only use one antivirus program, or you will have conflict. You can use all the other antispyware program without any conflict.

In my spare time I test on my backup computer all antispyware/antivirus programs to see if the perform as claimed And especially to see which one have embedded trojans/adware either in their program or in the wizard installer used to guide you through the installation.

What is rate as 1-2-3-4-5 is not always the best. Especially when you can find free programs that are light years ahead in technology over the purchased.

In my computer I use the following free programs.

For antivirus you can only use one or you will have serious conflict with your system. You can use three or four antispyware without any conflict.

Avast in my opinion is the very best. Have you Avast for nine plus years and never had one virus. They are out of Prague.

http://www.avast.com This program is free and has one of the very best background scanner that will catch any virus in real time and destroyed the virus before it can enter you system.
Updates auto., two or three times per day. They will ask you for your email address so they can send you a free key that is good for one year. After one year you only have to request a new key.

Antispyware

http://www.ewido.net This company was out of Germany and has since been purchased by AVG. Now the name is AVG antispyware. Still the same program with excellent technolgoy. When you download the program it will come with all functions an if you don't purchase in thirty days they will just remove the background scanner and the auto updates. You will update on a manual basis. Scans all 195,000 objects in my system.

http://www.emsisoft.com This company is out of Austria. Almost the same as the new AVG. A2Squared free version download. They will ask you for you email address so they can send you a key that is good for life. You will get any new free version with the same key. Plus has rootkit protection and rogue dialer protection. (I have ADSL, but use for the added protection).

Firewall

http://www.zonealarm.com Excellent firewall free, if you download their free for home use version. You will get daily updates if any are due, plus if they come out with a new free version they will notify you via automatic and you just say yes, download the new version. The new version will remove the old version. Always best to do is clean install, instead of allowing the new version to copy the files of what you allowed or deny. You will just have to allow, or deny incoming/outgoing traffice again. If you check off remember on Zone Alarm, they will not ask you again if you want to allow or deny the same program.

For "zero day attacks", Attacks that hit before any security company has knowledge of the attack. I use a free software that is is excellent state of the art technology to identify any program that the behaivor is strange, like trying to download hidden files, etc. etc. Will get a pop up with indepth details, so you can decide for yourself if you want to allow or deny. Plus will block all malware. http://www.cyberhawk.com

If you want to spend money you can use what I use in my backup pc. http://www.filseclab.com Twister Trojan Antivirus. This program is used by the Government of China and you only pay a one time fee of $29.99 for live. Will include all new versions, auto, updates, an excellent support. Has a real great background scanner that really works, plus many other features that operate from the icon in the tray. Well worth the one time fee. Most other companies charge you an annual fee. China does not believe in the annual fee.

Use kaspersky (go to http://www.kaspersky.com) like all AV you need to buy an annual subscription to keep getting updates... but it's worth it in the long run.

Answer 5

Have you scan for spyware? Get at least three free programs because no one program can detect all spyware http://www.basicspywaretips.com/getridofspyware.html
