How do I get rid of viruses?!?

I have a laptop that I have been given for work, and I've looked at a lot of things I shouldn't have. It's loaded with viruses, and spyware and tons of other garbage. How do I get rid of it all. It's really slow, tons of pop-ups and other garbage.

    So sorry to see that.

    Check Spyware Cease.

    It can provide u with real-time safe guard, which is very

    safe for u to surf on line so often.

    And it can remove your tons of infections and return u a tidy and fast PC.

    Well this is what i use to get rid of all the rubish:

    For security and viruses etc.

    -AVG

    -Ad-aware

    -A squared free

    -Spybot (maybe)

    Don't install all at the same time! install them one by one but keep AVG on always.

    -Malwarebytes anti-malware

    For speeding up and junk

    -Cc cleaner

    -Advanced system care(I prefer weekly)

    -Smart defrag (Weekly or monthly)

    For pop-ups

    Use firefox (browser)

    Get AVG and or Superantispyware 5.25. They both detect AND get rid of all that nasty stuff.and there are free ones on line.. Be sure to update BEFORE you use them..That's really important..

    let it do a boot scan and then if it finds anything let it delete them

    otherwise expect a P45 on your desk
