Hello People.
Our Toshiba laptop two weeks ago became infected with more viruses then ever, even when I have removed several from the laptop myself (which are painstaking and time consuming as to avoid destroying it). We had no single way of how to determine where the viruses where coming from. All the laptop does now once we turn on the power is load up untill we see either the Toshina or Windows logo and then turns off again and then turn itselfs back on again. Last time a relative was on the laptop in safe mode searching for a file name. I suggested that at all no file should be deleted untill I looked into it. They said that none were deleted, but I am still full of doubt, could you tell me can the software that assists in the starting up of the laptop be deleted or can it be corrupted to prevent us from using the laptop. Can it be fixed. Its a horror since theres bills to pay for the broadband and We cannot buy a new laptop now.
What can be done?
Free sites cause the problem and other family members failed to keep the filters and virus protection software on. Once it it dealt with we will increase the memory and have individual internet accounts with settings that will not be changed. The day before it happened a younger brother stopped deleting the temp internet files, when I said it should be done after closing every window and now the laptop needs to be scanned and searched for odd files daily.
I found a used laptop that I wanted to buy. Its 0, and its a Hp. I may be buying it tomorrow. But I’m not sure if I want to buy it, because I don’t want to have problems with it right away. Like downloaded software that I don’t want. Or any viruses, and stuff like that.
So Im asking, if there’s a way that I can get rid of all that crap I dont want, right when I buy the computer.
And the other one said i had alot of viruses. So i dont know what to do. Please help me
I’ve been using AVG but all it picks up is tracking cookies.
I’m pretty that my computer is infested with other things because i’m always downloading stuff from limewire etc.
What’s a program that i can download that picks the majority of viruses and spyware?
One with a free trial so i can see how well it works before i buy it?
I’m buying a new computer and want protection from viruses and other evil things.
I have a PC Laptop that is a little outdated but still does the job for me. Anyway, it runs far too slowly. It takes for ever to load a page online and also even takes far too long to open up an application such as MS word.
I usually delete all the cookies and any applications I do not use. It also does not seem that I have any major viruses on my laptop.
I plan to get a new laptop as soon as I can afford one, but for the time being will have to use this one.
What can I do to make it more efficient without buying anything?
If there are any applications online I can download which will assist me with this I would appreciate a link.
Thanks
I want to buy a laptop come summer and I could use some suggestions as I’m not much into computers.
I’ll use it mostly for the Internet, but for some games and movies as well.
I was thinking about using Linux (less viruses) for the Internet and Windows (more games) for gaming. What do you suggest?
Also, the only game I’ll probably play will be Football Manager, if that makes any difference.
Hello I was just wondering which Anti-virus, Anti-Spyware I should buy. AVG anti-virus & Anti-Spyware, Norton or Mcfee. I tried the free downloads but I would rather have the disk to get rid of any and all viruses.
My PC is 4 years old and still runs very well. It’s a Dell Dimension 2300 Windows XP. Printer is included.It has wireless internet, no viruses ( I never downloaded music onto it), up to date virus protection, not slow performance and hardly ever freezes. How can I sell it & is that safe to do? Can I use ebay, amazon ,any ideas?
I have had my HP Pavilion laptop for about a year now and its really slow and has alot of viruses. So i might get a mac. But i mostly want to know if the mac is good cause i am going to buy one for my grandmas birthday. She wants to use it to see her family on msn.
Can you please answer these questions:
My freind told me that viruses dont even exist in a mac is that true?
What are the good and bad things about a mac?
Do you think i might have any difficulties with it?
Is it easy to use?
About how much does it cost?
Please dont tell me i shouldnt buy it because my hp laptop is still good or something….just answer the questions please.
I figured I could just buy it and do it myself. What is a really good one to buy? I heard Norton’s is bad. I need one that covers everything bc I definitely do NOT want any viruses or anything going wrong with the comp, esp bc I didn’t get the extended service plan with my comp………any advice???
I put in the registration number that was needed to start the program, and the viruses are gone.
If I refund the purchase I made, and the software is no longer in use, what would happen? Would I end up getting viruses again on my computer? or once they’re gone, they’re gone for good?
Hi. A few months ago we bought into Anti-Virus-1. This kept on popping up and saying we had a ton of viruses. We were so annoyed by it we just bought it for , using our credit card. We now figured out that the whole thing was a scam, and Anti-Virus-1 was some kind of spyware virus thing.
Is there any way we can get our money back?
Thanks so much!
Please help! My computer seems to be under attack by viruses and when I try to search for them, the virus directs the websites.

I need a free anti virus software that I can download without it asking me to buy after they show me how many viruses I have. Please, school starts again really soon and I really need my files!
I have a computer that is completely over ran with viruses and was wondering if there are any sites that could help me out.
I just scanned my computer with a virus removal software and it said that i have roughly 3000 viruses…everything from backdoors, trojans, polymorphic trojans, worms, and everything in between. if you could lead me to a free software as to i will not have to pay it will be of great help. thank you!
I have enough money to buy one but not both. I have a laptop right now…I’m wondering if I should buy a new hard drive for my desktop that has a lot of viruses. If I buy a new hard drive I could use the desktop. Should I get an iTouch since it has free internet and games? I want both and I can’t make a decision. List the Pros and Cons of both. Thank You.
I want to use it in my new laptop. And I dont want to buy expensive anti viruses at best buy. I am thinking using free anti virus software in the net or the Cox security suite. Which do you think is more effective?
Can we don’t buy the "Anti-Virus" software products and destroy the viruses without these softwares?
I want to reformat it to make sure there aren’t any viruses or anything on it. My first question is, should I ? Secondly, do I just take it to any PC-Repairing place to get it reformated? Lastly, how much will it cost and how long do you think it will take?
Thanks
