If Uncle knows about computers...he will probably know what it came from before he cleans it.

Not necessarily, but he could find out as cookies are stored and certain web pages if not cleaned up. Bad idea visiting those kind of sites as they are usually riddled with nasties.

Yep, if your uncle is the one that is tech savy enough to fix the computer he knew where your cousin went to mess up his PC.

most virus are spread through IE. IE is not a safe browser.
you should use a more secure browser to protect your PC from virus. i recommand you to use firefox with Google toolbar.
firefox can block any any popup and disable any virus and adware, spyware on webpage, so, firefox is much safer than IE browser.
as you know, most of virus spread throught internet and webpage.
besides, firefox is much smaller than IE, so it run faster than IE. download firefox for free, Just have a try:
