    use nod32 best thing ever, better than norton, it leaves a small memory foot print therefore not taking up much space in your computer so it doesnt slow it down like norton and mcaffee, it keeps updated with the latest viruses, trojans, worms, malware, etc. let me know if you need a copy i'll get it for you for $15

    Hit it with spyware doctor first. Then run spybot search and destroy. Then follow up with hijack this, followed by Malware Bytes. Finally, reboot in safe mode and run combofix.

    This will clean almost every computer and i used to do it at work all the time.

    Follow up with installing Nod32 to protect you in the future.

    AVG is the WORST antivirus program on the market. Check out Virus Bulletin and see how much stuff got through AVG.

    Being that I have been using it for the last 3 1/2 years with no problems, I'd definitely disagree with you. Later, QD.

    Let's scan your computer and see what comes up. I'll bet you $100 I can find spyware on your machine. At the store I worked, we offered a virus free guarantee. You get a virus during the course of the two year ESET subscription after we clean it, we clean it again FREE. Call anywhere that sells AVG and ask if they do that. AVG is garbage, we tested it. It's definitions are not complete, you don't know that you have stuff.
