I had adaware and spybot- they worked ok though i still ended up with tons of ware on my computer

I had Norton but I found the instructions complicated and i couldnt get it to work right. It found at risk files but wouldnt delete them when I told it to.


Yes I use windows. though i dont want to i hate the idea of being "monitered" though thats probably paranoia

What does windows do anyway?

What is an OS?
I'm getting everything new- (except my computer which is a dell)

So please tell me everything, including the "OS" and replacement for Windows that I should get to keep under the radar, and hard to acess by ad/ spyware
and viruses


thanks
