you need a computer cleaner
downloads.com or tucows.com has programs that
are free or give you a 30 day trial
system mechanic 7 is good has all the tools you need
to keep your computer clean

well you can download a pop-up blocker or get the latest version of internet explorer to stop the pop-ups. as far as the virus, you need an anti-virus software. you can download ad-aware for free. but it would be better if you bought one like nortons. then you can scan your computer and get rid of any viruses that might be there. also, if you have windows xp, make sure the firewall is on(control panel) good luck!
