I am so sorry to take up space with such a stupid question, but my grandkids used my laptop, and computer over the Hollidays and must have picked up some tragic viruses on both of my computers..
I have downloaded Ccleaner, and Sophos Virus Remover, and some registry cleaner, but I still have problems with Pop-up, and slow..
HELP PLEASE!

That’s what I did......
Why would a company have pop ups anyways. They are so annoying I wouldn’t buy anything they are selling

Thanks for making note of C-Net at download.com is a major source of the worst sort of malware.
As 'Obi Won' would say, a wretched hive of scum and villainy.

Cnet is good for reading reviews and then getting the hell out of there!

Someone may have already said to download adblockeplus!
It stops popups! and is a quick and easy DL.

I use AVG (the free version) and haven’t had any problems.

I'm not sure of the best method (outside of re-installing the OS) for getting rid of a computer virus, but that's probably because I run ESET NOD32 and don't get them in the first place. That is different from when I ran McAffee, AVG, Norton, etc.
In my view, an ounce of prevention is worth a ton of cure.

I go by date they were installed and figure out if I intentionally installed them or they were auto installed- or if my kids or some program they visited did- and what they do for me
I also look at the old ones and do we use them- especially programs installed by old games
Then clean house

One more question?
When I click on a link it no longer takes me directly to the site, I have to hit the right side of the mouse to get a pop up option that says “open link”.
Any ideas on how to fix this?
