Hi...

There are many good tech in TV and I'm sure you'll get some reposnes here.
That is one option!

Just a caution though, with a 6 YO PC, you have to ask yourself if you should be throwing good money after bad. With the prices of new desktop PCs, another option may be to go new.

That being said, it sounds like you have Spyware on your PC.

The best tool I have found over my years of experience with PC's is Spybot, a free tool for cleaning up spyware.

You can download it from a very respected web site, CNET , install and run it...let it run to completion. This may clean up most of your issues.

Here is the link...

Spybot - Search & Destroy - CNET Download.com

Hope this helps!
