Good program to delete viruses
I need some good program to delete viruses but i think i don't have any on those right now but it's good to check if there is something in my computer if you guys know some great program to do that... and it should be sort of easy to use :P
If you have an Anti-Virus program installed then it should also be able to remove viruses.
If not you can download and install a free one such as AVG.
Another one is Avast, which I've heard good things about but never used.
And another free one is AntiVir, which I also haven't used.
On my computer (Windows) I run Sophos though it's not free, I've also had experience with Norton Anti-Virus which caused more problems than it solved. I ditched Norton after they deactivated my legal copy then wanted to charge me for a phone call to sort the problem out.

I trust Norton AntiVirus.
Seriously though, you should have an anti-virus program on your computer.

I use AVG to protect my computer. Very nice anti-virus software, check the link in deepdragon's post.

I think that Kaspersky is a good one too; i use it since my first computer and it had never disappointed me.
Try it and you'll see.
Anyway, format everything and it will be clear & proper ;-)

eddieroolzI trust Norton AntiVirus.
...to attempt to wrench all semblence of control away from the user and to cause as many problems as it prevents in doing so.
Well i got Antivir and it's good and when i scan there are no viruses... before antivir i got norton and that sucks it found many viruses and it can delete only few and it's so sticky to rin when i deleted it my computer even work better... so i think that antivir is good because i don't have any viruses then... i think
Stay well clear of Norton, I find it used a lot of system resources and was incredibly annoying.
Best thing Norton did was when they deactivated my copy (which was completely legal), once it was uninstalled the computer was far more responsive and crashed a lot less. And I certainly don't miss all the "waiting to scan file" pop-ups that slowed my system to a crawl.
I've heard good things about Kaspersky, if I hadn't been given Sophos I would have probably bought Kaspersky.

I've used Avast for years and its been fine for me. In fact, I liked it so much I bought their pro version but they also have a free version. Back in 2004, I bought Norton internet security crap which cost me $60. After the second reinstall/reactivation, Norton locked my copy so I threw the Norton cd along with the box in my fireplace and burned it. Best thing I've ever done. When you try to uninstall Norton (and you will after you use it), it leaves behind tons of crap on your computer which takes forever to clean up by hand. Don't use McAfee either because it is completely useless in terms of virus protection and removal.
Why hello thar...
You sure its a virus? alot of the time spyware/malware/adware tend to act somewhat like virus's even alot of trojans are more spyware now adays it seems
can try a 30day trial of spysweeper www.webroot.com/dell just update it an scan your comp, see if it helps
hijack this is good if you know what your doing as well,
as for free apps there's always spybot (www.safter-networking.net) and adaware (www.lavasoftusa.com) both are ok apps for removal / finding items an they both have free items (you can download'm from www.download.com as well)
as for antivirus i find free avg better than norton or mcafee lmao, mcafee, and norton like messing up and locking you out of crap for no apparent reason, not to mention even after you uninstall them, half of there services continue to run on your computer sucking up reasources for no reason whatsoever

Stay away from Norton! If you ever want to uninstall it in the future its a pain. doing the uninstall alone is not enough you have to go to their site and download a removal tool to make sure you get everything out of your system otherwise your computer won't run right after the uninstall. If you need a quick fix I found that using the 30 day trial period of Ewido is useful. After that you can ether buy it or get a more advanced program. I use Mcafee but only because it's free with my Comcast cable Internet. You should check to see if your Internet Service Provider gives out free virus protection software.

I think AVG is one of the best anti-viruses...i use it, and its 100% Safe. once, i had my PC full of Trojan and that kind of things, and i had Norton...but he did'nt eliminate them!! and actually mi PC was decaying...until i installed ABG, and now my PC doesn't have a Trojan at all..and even if it would have one, its 1 chance on 10000%, and ABG erases it instantly XD....so i dont trust norton in any circunstance
serach in www.download.com for the so-called AVG^^...surely it's worth a try;)

Lot of them depend on your need...some of virus can't be detected by one S/W, so every anti virus has each own advantages
heere some that i know and maybe good
norton antivirus
