Thanks for all that info, I definately need a virus program, I know I got at least one virus. I keep getting that netbus trojan message from my firewall. Another guy suggested spy sweeper and last night I dowloaded it and did it, and can you believe I had 74 of those damn spy programs on my comp? My comp was totally hijacked! The thing booted right up after I got rid of all them, and it even runs faster. I can`t believe this kind of stuff goes on or is even legal, how can they do that to people computers?

My wife found over 500 malware files the first time she scanned her office PC with Ad-Aware! Teenagers, coming in at night.
( Or so she claims... )

AVG has a new free release out:

 
 AVG Anti-Virus version 7 (free) release available...

...which I just installed. They do update their reference files frequently, and AVG doesn't hog system resources like some of the big names do.
