May 16th, 2010

JOAN S asked:


My son got comcast internet recently. We could not download mcfee antivirus that came with it.(Tried numerous times.) He bought Webroot spysweeper with antivirus and installed it. Ran scan and quarantined everything that came up, but the spyware is still there and keeps popping up. Also ran Ad-ware. Nothing seems to get rid of it. Keep in mind that the computer is old and has a lot of stuff on it. It is very slow. Thanks for help in advance.
