Infected!!

My computer has a virus and I can't seem to get it to go away. I have tried downloading a number of free anti-virus, anti-spyware type things but they don't seem to be working. My laptop is running super slow, programs are freezing, it's shutting down randomly, and I'm getting tons of pop-ups, some of which are really gross porn ads. I'm so upset, I want to cry. I'm really tired and stressed. I need to work on a bunch of school stuff, which is obviously on the computer, but it is not cooperating. I could go to campus to work on a computer in the library, but I just came from a really long day at school and don't want to go back. All the solutions to this problem are just making me more upset and stressed. I want to crawl into my bed and sleep. My poor sick laptop.

You can come over and use our computer any time you like, and stay the night if you want. Let me know!

try AVG if you haven't. Also, you should think about reformatting when you have a little more time.

Did you try AVG like Dave suggested (and now others as well)? Probably huh.

Though it would be a hassle and a great deal of effort - it may be worthwhile to have your computer professionally cleaned and checked when you have the time to lose it for a day. I know I did that (cost about 20 ish bucks) when I couldn't get rid of some viruses, etc and it worked perfectly.

Well, like Kristen offered - you can come over and use one of our many computers as we do have some extra ones haha.

It's really too bad your computer doesn't just have the hiccups.
