    These are a few free programs, which work great together to check whether your computer is infected. Make sure to disable your own Anti-virus before installing a new one because it may cause a conflict.

    Download the following:

    Spybot: Search & Destroy - Application to scan for spyware, adware, hijackers and other malicious software. Make sure to download all of the newest updates before scanning.

    http://www.safer-networking.org/en/mirrors/index.h...

    Windows Defender - Windows Defender is a free program that helps protect your computer against pop-ups, slow performance, and security threats caused by spyware and other unwanted software. Make sure to download all of the newest updates before scanning.

    http://www.microsoft.com/athome/security/spyware/s...

    AVG Anti-Virus Free - http://free.grisoft.com/

    Make sure to download all of the newest updates before scanning.

    To prevent future problems download SpywareBlaster and update it, make sure to enable all protection.

    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:

    Good Luck !!!
