need help?!
my computer was overtaken by spyware in january and again this past week
the first time i had to have my computer wiped clean and reloaded, worked well till now and this time i just had to have data recovery?
this is what happened both times:
suddenly this ad for an antivirus came up on my screen, over took my desktop and locked down my computer , i could not do anything but turn it off
was told that it was spyware that was probably picked from some community site
the first time i may have not been completely up to date in protection but the second time confuses me because the PC guy installed supposed adequate protection and i ran them weekly , he installed spybot,spyblaster, windows defender, and adaware
so my question is are these adequate , enough to keep me safe ? the most common sites visited is facebook,occasional myspace(kids), ebay , and youtube
i personally think it is youtube? can someone shed some light?! If there is a program that i even need to buy , i will.

The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence and find out for themselves...
