my computer has a spam virus. Whenever i log on to the computer i have
something new downloaded. It's like the computer has a mind of it's own. How
do I fix the problem? I am not up to date on computer terms so the easiest
directions would be greatly appriciated. I am like a swimmer talking
football. :) Thank you. I hope someone can help.
 
More details as to what "spam virus" and what has been downloaded would have
been helpful.
Do you have an up to date anti-virus program running? Have you tried an AV
scan?
Is your firewall enabled?
Do you have any anti spyware programs?
