    Download AVG Free Edition, and set it up to scan your computer once a day.

    If you can pay some $$, try Kaspersky or Trend Micro. Each has a 30 day free trial. Both check for Adware - which makes a back door for tracing your surfing habits.

    Spybot Search and Destroy is good and free. Careful - there is another one that looks a lot like the same name...but charges money!

    Spam? PM me and I can pass on some tips that help! Too long to add here.

    OMG! No wonder! I have been receiving a message from some of my contacts constantly. The message is a link to a website called clickforu or something like that. I remember accepting a file from DH's nephew, it said "check out these pictures of me before I put them on MySpace". I guess that's why I am getting all this spam. One of my contacts says her MSN account was stolen, and when the person logs in, they send me loads of spam.

    Thanks for letting us know, I will definately run a scan now. =]
