    can someone help me out and tell me what I need to download to my computer to make my video on my myspace profile to work. you see i restored my computer to its original state because of viruses. so i know its working but just not for me.

    and also does anyone have a list compiled of all the free virus protection and spyware programs to get so i can try to not have this happen to me again.

    P.s. never buy a pc from a friend used.

    thanks in advance, very much.

    go to download.com

    get

    AVG antivirus
    Avast antivirus
    spybot search and destroy
    ad aware
    crap cleaner
    and your system should be good to go.

    hey does anyone know what it means when every once in a while your display gets fuzzy and you can hardly see the screen. and it usually restarts the computer then. and it also usually does it when i start the computer, and once it gets going its usually ok.

    i downloades a video card driver. thats really all i know to do.

    Why didn't you just wipe the HARD DRIVE clean and start from scratch? Only THEN would you be sure it's got nothing malicious on it.

    I assume that's what he did when he restored it.
