go to

http://housecall65.trendmicro.com/

it will scan for virus and spyware. it is good and free also.

I went there and it DID do the scans but it says I HAVE to buy it to purchase it before it will remove it???

I think (this is just my opinion) that they do that to scare you and get to you buy their product. There probably isn't anything wrong with your computer at all. Just another scare tactic.

buying it must be new. i have used it many times and i never had to buy it.

How would they know , they are not inside your computer????? It's just a marketing tool to buy their product....in my opinion.

go to pcpitstop, sign up, and do the various scans. Maybe you will find what is on your computer that is not supposed to be. it's free

I have a feeling that something was put into you startup folder so it runs every time you start up

I think you are right Allie. When I reboot it still comes up and I can't ignore it because it it written in black letter all across the screen..and now I have install sooo many *so called free anti stuff* that they all try to come up with every click of the button.. It is making so much noise it sounds like my modem is fixing to take off...lol (not really laughing)..

do u know how to find out what is in start up? just in case u dont,

go to start
run
type in msconfig
then ok.

it will bring up a box with tabs and click on start up. that will show u what starts up when u boot.
