    Computer not responding, is it possibly malware?

    Hello, I don't even know what to do or where to begin. My computer has stopped responding. About a month ago our computer took over an hour to start up, we just kept seeing the four-coloured Windows logo in the middle of the black screen. Then it finally started and we were able to use it...

    Backing up your personal files

    I'm sure there is an easier way to back-up existing personal files. The way I've been doing it is crazy, put a USB into my computer, open up two windows of Explorer and go through each file, each picture, each folder to see what is new and copy it over to the USB window. So time consuming, so...

    Hello, wondering if I did something wrong. I got the prompt to download the new version of Spybot 2.4, so I did, all went well, did the updates and then started the scan, it now says 836 minutes left to completion and it keeps going up from there! This can't be, it's never taken more than 15...

    Can A Malware that Keeps coming back be removed for good?

    Hello, first time poster here, I keep getting the same malware (I think this is what it's called.....I'm such a newbie!) on my computer. Some of the stuff I've seen just pop up in my browser.
