Even surfing certain pages can execute viruses on your pc. Your best bet is Norton Internet Security.

Norton sucks. Worked for 3 months(never found a virus), and now it wants me to pay 20 bucks for a year of virus updates. Screw you norton. Be sure to download Ad-aware. Best damn free program ever. You can find it at www.lavasoftusa.com

As for computer fixing places, I hate them. They screwed up our old one. The internet wasnt working, we had a tech guy from ATandT come, he was on it for like 2 hours, couldnt figure it out, so we took it to some place, and it came back smelling like smoke, and I swear the graphics card was never quite the same. Thats why when I start having big problems with my new one im gonna figure them out myself.

Adaware is good!

Maybe that's because you didn't have any viruses

Norton is great, I'm using it and it has detected viruses and malicious scripts many times.
