Oh, and by the way, I just found out my computer is literaly infested beyond the point where it can be fixed. My computer is screwed, and it's not even hoked up to the internet! i use my mom's (old) computer for internet. I guess I should have been more careful. Damnit

Unless there's something wrong with the hardware, you can just reformat the drive and reinstall everything........then invest in a good anti-virus program. And a firewall.

 

EDIT: but you shouldn't have to pay for the firewall. Zone Alarm works fine, and it's free. Also, a neat little trick you can pull with Norton Anti-Virus is to buy a new copy from an online vendor at a discount every year rather than renewing your subscription. I pay about $6.00 a year for Norton that way. The trick is that you buy Norton right before they update to the next years version, so that the price is lower. You still get 12 months of free updates, so there isn't really any downside to doing this.

Sygate Personal Firewall's what I used to use (but now my uni has an ultra-strict one I use instead).

I HAVE Firewalls, and I jsut finished cleaning my computers, I have Zone Alarm, Spybot S&D, Norton Antivirus, etc.. My dad Fixes computers for a living, I would think he knows a thing or two about security, And He set up the security on my computer! He is the President of IService Online Inc. For Crying out loud!

Excuse me, but there is no security that could withstand ignorance

Glad to see that you have learned a little something about the importance of being cordial during your brief hiatus, Hacker.
