All I did the other day was go to a website trying to find a graphic for myspace for someone's birthday and BAM!! I now have a virus! I have deleted programs, I have ran spyware and virus protection thingees, I have changed settings to high security and what not. The only thing left that I know to do is wipe my computer out and redo over. I hate to lose all the pictures that I have on there though. What has messed up is that when I turn my computer on, it is extremely slow and everything is fine unless I get on the Internet. Then, I have a zillion pop ups and they will not quit. My pop up blocker is on and everything. I don't know what else to do, so someone, anyone, I need suggestions!!

Is there a Best Buy up in PB? You could take it up there to the computer geeks and they will fix it for you - for a price. But if your pictures and files are worth it they are worth it. That's the only suggestion I really know. I hope you figure out what to do soon!
i checked with the geek squad online and it is $200 to do in store removal or $100 for instructions over the phone. i will have to save for a bit for that one. ; ]
Yeah I knew they were pretty expensive - sometimes it's almost cheaper to buy a new computer and just get your files off the old one - that is what we ended up doing! It's funny - 10 years ago or 15 we never thought how much we would rely on computers and the internet!!!
girl, i know!! EVERYTHING is on computers! You should go see Live Free or Die Hard you know with Bruce Willis in it...that movie really shows how much EVERYTHING is on computers. good movie. but, i'm glad or i wouldn't be able to write as many letters as we talk! haha
