you should take it to best buy.. my other computer had a lot of ad-aware and viruses on it so we took it to best buy and they cleared it all out for us and checked all parts to make sure they were working. it usually takes about 2-3 days~

maybe you should reinstall the hard drive again, but this time, stop going to pron sites and other questionable *free* sites too. =] That'll get rid of the spyware for good!

Your computer is salvagable, but I suggest re formatting the drive. Back up what you need and reformat it. Reinstall windows, all of your prorams and files. Get Spybot S&D. Then, download the update if there is any. Immunize your system. Run a spyware check and remove all spyware. Download Mozilla Suite/Firefox. Then you'll be fine!

I have Firefox, I just got it today, I love it! It's so much faster. I'm going to download Spybot. |

Well, if you don't want to reformat, try to get rid of all spyware on that thing. Google for Trendmicro Housecall, which is a free online virus scanner. Let that get rid of viruses/trojans. When your computer is all clean, defragment your hard drive. Then it'll speed things up A LOT. Good luck. |
