Hi people. I'v got to say that this is a great forum. I finally managed to get internet at home acouple of months ago, I installed a copy of Norton Anti-Virus and I was using Spybot Search & Destroy regularly.
I'v got to admit I was downloading alot of stuff from Kazaa and then switched to Kazaa Lite++ and Suprnova (bit-torrent). About a month my Norton Anti-Virus stopped updating, around this time I also started to get alot of Pop ups and noticed that my computer would slow down alot and sometimes crash. I also noticed that if I was using Google, the first page of results would be crap.
I did download a copy of AVG free Anti-virus Software but I was still having the same problems. I finally managed to 'fix' my Norton Anti-Virus by looking at some threads on this forum, I then checked for updates and also ran Spybot and also Ad-aware by Lavasoft , after this my computer seemed to be working fine, it was faster I wasn't getting any pop ups and my Google was working fine.
That was until I switched users ( I have a copy of Windows XP professional ) and realised that I was still getting Pop ups and I realised that I had to run Ad-Aware again to remove ad-ware that I thought that I had alrady removed on the the user name. I have about 5 users on my PC and it would be a alot of hassel to run Spybot and Ad- Aware on each different user. Can anybody help please
