But with them have come all sorts of garbage I'm trying to get out of there because now sites like Webkinz won't load...

She has gotten some recommendations for anti virus programs and I am suggesting an anti spyware programs: Spybot Search and Destroy.

She might also consider an anti adware program called AdAware. :think

We use clamwin. It finds things Norton totally misses, and you have good quarantine/delete options.

I am running spybot on mine right now and it says that there are two adware things on it but it wont' remove them because it says I am not an admin on my computer. :-/ I am the only account on this computer. I am confused. It is a coupon bar thingy..which I can't find and can't uninstall because I can't find it..

:help

Rachael you can make yourself admin. Here you go.

I'd suggest running Malwarebytes and SuperAnitiSpyware.

Close the program and find the icon. Right click on it and select, "run as admin." :yes
