Do you get various annoying pop-ups 24/7? Are you recieving a virus every time you open up IE?? Your computer having errors all the time??? Well mine is, and it's time to hit back!

If you know of any free anti-virus and/or anti-spyware software that could stop pop-ups and heal trojans/backdoors and other viruses, could you please tell me of some?

I've tried Trend 2007 FREEand AVG Free 7.5 but they have little effect on my computers problems.

Please help, thankyou - The_Bummer_09

Try Avast for Antivirus (it's free).

For anti-spyware try spybot, ad-aware 2007, AVG anti-spyware, A Squared.

The free version locks out a bunch of features but it's free. ¬_¬

I have SBC's Softwarre. Works great. I can't even remember a pop-up it's been so long. But I'm sure you must be an AT&T customer to have acces to the software.

I can't believe everybody doesn't have adware & spyware by now. I've had if for 5-6 years. Maybe longer.

Not a lot of people know the difference sadly...you should check my sisters computer, it literally takes in hour to load from just turning it on to a specific homepage... She has soo much spyware and probably viruses...its just unsavable...I am planning on bombing it and then putting a new, or same OS on it so it may live on...
