I would like to say my computer was attacked by the viruses and spyware again! Could someone help me please!
i had install AVG Anti Virus software and McAFee Security Suite to my computer but there is a stil not any effect on my computer? Worst thing that it reduce my computer performance system that become slow and slower! Could you tell what is the proper steps that i should do to prevent the viruses and spyware to attack on my computer? Could you recommend me some of the best Anti-Virus Software and Anti-Spyware on the Internet (Free-Trial please)
Can you tell me the steps or procedures on reformating on the computer? Because it really cause me a lot of money and time when i sent my computer to the authorised shop to fix the problem! My actual computer program was Microfosoft Professional XP but can i change to Microsoft Home Edition during the Formating processes or Stick to the Original or beyong to the Latest Microsoft! (Backup first? How to do if i want to backup the program that i want- say Adobe Reader before the reformating process began?)
My CPU has Intel Pentium 4 but i think it is still to slow when i try to log on the internet, what is the actual problem? Is it my modem, the service provider or other things else?
Thanks for those really hep me to solve the problem! I really appriciate your help! Thank you!

Try some online antivirus/spam/adware scanners such as
http://housecall.trendmicro.com/
They also have free trial download of the full internet security suite. Its good stuff.

| The best way to avoid getting virus's and spy ware is to try to refrain from download large surplus's of pornography.

| Philip K is right. Downloading thousands of miniature porn movies set my last computer ablaze with spyware (evilbeware) and viruses. It never came out of the darkness I created in it. And I don't think i have either. So be careful and good luck!!!
