I hope you guys can help...

When it comes to computers I just know how to log on ...and that brings me to my problem.

Last night my laptop was infected with a virus. I scanned the computer with the virus protection plan it has and it tells me that it has cleaned the unnecessary files.

I also run a "clean sweep" another program I have to make sure.

Just when I think I'm doing everything I'm suppose to do, I reboot my computer and my homepage has been changed to a "spyware protection" page.


And all these popups come up telling me to "purchase this" bc my 'puter has been infected by a "backdoor trojan" (that sounds funny!!)

Anyways, I'm just a few seconds away from throwing the thing across the room...(it's been going on since last night).

I don't want to pay for added protection when I already have it. And I especially don't want to use CC info when my computer has been weakend.

Any tips/help would be GREATLY apreciated!!
