I somehow caught a virus on my laptop(thanks to my little brother) and i used the smithfraudfix(used it twice before with no probs). I cleaned the registry in safe mode and rebooted the pc in normal mode. Starts with blank blue screen and takes about thirty minutes for icons to appear on screen. cant execute any programs or click on any icons. Do I have to reinstall windows again or is there a way i can get around to make it work? I have a sony vaio vgn1nb130 with 2 gb memory running windows xp media edition.

I just bought a new Sony computer and I need to purchase or download a virus protection program. I want to know which program you recommend and why. Thanks!
Please tell me WHY you think the program you recommend is the best out there…thanks! Also do you guys recommend downloading (pay), downloading (free) or purchasing? Why?

Hi, I’m trying to free up disk space on my computer [it’s a Sony Vaio], and last night I tried the ‘Disc Clean Up’ tool, and it when scanning it wouldn’t go past ‘compressed files’ or something like that. I decided to leave it all night and when I checked it this morning it was the exact same.

Does anyone know how I can fix this, or what the problem is?

Any help will be much appreciated. 🙂

which programs do you recommend me to make the best inspection in safe mode to my laptop sony vaio?
(sorry for poor english) thanks =D
