Hej hej!

I've tryed hard to learn "everything" I got recomended in the post from November 10, 2008, 07:57:41 PM, by Corrine, and alot of other stuff related to this, in links from those pages too.
It wasn't very easy even thogh I found it in Swedish.  :uhm:

Though I didn't understand things about Avira, I uninstalled it and installed AVG instead.
I didn't even try to install Avast because I had AVG on the other pc, and know how to handle it and I feel save with it. Is that as good as Avast or Avira? Or is Avast as easy as AVG to handle?

I've got Malwarebytes' and also installed Ad-Aware. Maybe these two are the same kind of program? If so, which of them are most simpel to use?

Is there something else I have to do to protect my computer ?
I had Spyware Blaster, ATF and Spybot S&D installed on my old pc. Maybe I don't have to use these together with the other programs?

Thanks for your time / Mimmi

Mimmi,
QuoteIs that as good as Avast or Avira? Or is Avast as easy as AVG to handle
AVG is easy use and a good choice.
QuoteI've got Malwarebytes' and also installed Ad-Aware. Maybe these two are the same kind of program?
Having two programs on your PC is fine just do NOT run them at the same time,
it is perfectly ok to use  two malware programs as that way as one may find items that another may mis.

press Enter then have a Brandy then if the problem is still there have another Brandy
Q: does it work
A: It does seem to for a few hours at least.

Thanks GR@PH;<'S :)

Do you have any suggestions to my other questions?
Maybe someone else do?

Is there something else I have to do to protect my computer ?
I had Spyware Blaster, ATF and Spybot S&D installed on my old pc. Maybe I don't have to use these together with the other programs?

http://www.mvps.org/winhelp2002/hosts.htm  <--- the mvp hosts file.  read and do.

if you don't want to learn about it, just use it.
it is (in my opinion) more important than anti virus, and anti malware products
and yes, you need anti virus and anti malware.
