I have several anti-virus (trend micro security, ad-aware, spyboot,a-squared) but none of them are that great. I STILL  have spywares, trojans, virus etc...on my computer and it's very slow. I also have tons of pop-up when I'm on the internet.
Here is my question: What is the best anti-Virus and/or the best solution to clean my computer?
Thank you.

Best solution to clean your computer is to reformat and reinstall!  Wink

I've been extremely happy with Microsoft Anti-spyware.  I believe it's still in beta, but in my experience, it's been the best one out there.  The default install takes care of everything for you too - auto updates, and gives you a scan report every morning (or late night)... very nice.  And, it's free.

this is my current set up, i havent had any spyware for ages

get a free firewall, sygate for instance

drop Internet Explorer..install spyware easily, compliments of microsoft...use firefox, ive had very few problems with it..activate the popup blocker, its fantastic, superior bookmarking, lots of add ons for things like RSS feeds, adblock  etc...use the fireox download manager isntead of installing crap like getright

use the free AVG virus killer and set it to automatically update

run adaware every day at start up...

Best solution to clean your computer is to reformat and reinstall!? Wink


Well I did that about 20 times (really!) and still my PC gets fucked up after about 2 days after. The only solution for me was to go back to my old faithful Windows 98

microsoft antispyware works REALLY well, but beware if you have some programms cracked... it deletes those cracks too Sad
another good one is spysweeper

but IMO the best way to deal with that is: FORMAT C:   Grin (kids, don't do that if you are not sure Wink)

yeah, it's not safe but what do you mean? XP has built-in firewall but it's turned off by default. Anyway, any system needs a protection as 98 as XP and others.

Formatting won't help if you're visiting suspicious sites and programs or you have "crooked arms".
