I was browsing the internet yesterday and suddenlly I got a window that popped up from my Norton Antivirus software saying that Norton AntiVirus had detected a virus and that it has been immediately deleted. I ran a virus scan afterwards and there were no threats. I've never had this happen before so my question is, do I need to do anything, like go into the Norton and quarantine or do something to make sure my computer is threat-free? Or is it all taken care of? I don't know, it just seems too easy to have the software delete the virus immediately and then that's it!
Its all taken care of, but you should switch to mozilla firefox instead of Internet Explorer.
Mozilla wont allow websites to load files onto your computer the same way that IE does.
I think my computer has a virus. I don't know how it got there because I was away and I'm the only one that uses the computer. I never installed anything to the computer. It started all of this very spontaneously yesterday when just all of a sudden all of these popups kept popping up making it impossible to use my computer. I turned it off and back on and then the background only says restore active desktop. Now when Ill be on a website when I click on a link it goes to a random search website or goes to a website that is called dnserror.org. I also have a lot of popups compared to before. My dad thinks that its a conspiracy for companies to make money off of you and blames Mcaffee for it since they had a thing that popped up to renew my stuff. I don't have the money to buy any antivirus software and he doesn't believe viruses exist. How do I get rid of this and is there any legit free antivirus software out there?
You have one or more Trojans:
Download SuperAntiSpyware. It will remove the majority of difficult Trojans etc.
http://www.superantispyware.com/
Turn off System Restore. Load the application in normal mode but run in Safe Mode. Safe Mode can be started by continually pressing F8 during the boot sequence.
If you are badly infected you might need to run SuperAntiSpyware more than once to give you a totally clean system.
I currently have Sky broadband and it takes me 45mins to download a 45 min tv show. I've been told that I should be able to download this in 10mins as I have 8meg broadband. What could be slowing down my connection? I share my connection (as you can also use it wirelessly) with my laptop and both are very slow. On my laptop it takes as long as 1hr to download an hour long podcast! My pc is connected through an ethernet cable and not wirelessly.
On my computer it also takes ages to play games (on Miniclip etc.) as the characters move very slowly. The graphics are of a lower quality than on my laptop.
I've asked around and been told I could have a virus on my computer and/ or spyware. I've downloaded SpyBot and ran it and destroyed anything its found. Is there any other free antivirus software you'd recommend?
Basically, do you have any ideas as to why my computer is so slow and is there any antivirus software you'd recommend?
Thanks a lot

ok run virus checks for one
i use avg (http://free.grisoft.com/doc/1)
then number 2: lock your wireless, put password on it
connect to you box (modem) go to setting, wireless then protect,
if you have trouble call sky (i don't use sky)
+ check are you on unlimitted?
+ read fair usage (if you download alot, it will put you behind other people)
the newest antivirus software now...Happens every time I go to different pages on the net...I have antivirus software (Avast) and it doesn't say I have a virus...and I have Spybot Search and Destroy, and run it and then delete the spyware that shows up...and I still get the system error message...What is wrong and how can I fix it?
Sounds like a scam to try to get you to DL a program that WILL put a virus on your system.
If your other AV programs are telling you you're safe I would bet you are.
vundo or smitfraud.

I had the same problem and someone on the Geek squad told me to download something like a movie, album, and that would help. That was with my old computer that me and my cuz are working on so if it works I will tell ya. U cal also call the geek squad at best buy and they will help ya--even if you didn't buy it there. or jus give it a shot of penicillin to git rid of that virus lol
I think your antivirus software did'nt work. So you just download AVG for Free which you can download for free from http://www.grisoft.com
Or you can search for better antivirus softwares from http://www.download.com
If you scan your computer the virus will be destroyed.
