Ok if you dont have it download CCleaner and install it and run a scan to get rid of any junk files. How is the rest of the computer? Running ok? When did it start happening? After a windows update? What type on internet connection are you using? Oh and if you have an adblocker of any sort...

Theres various things on google with similar issues. But seriously have you thought of using Thunderbird: http://www.mozilla.org/products/thunderbird/ Much more secure, and fully featured.

There are removal tools for AVG Avast and Norton, I would run them all. Before that I would download Eusings Registry Cleaner and install it. Once that was done I would run all the removal tools one after the other, then run a registry scan and fix any problems it finds. There should be a safe...

Try this: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/283807 Hope it helps. If it doesn't download Firefox install it and browse to a site your having trouble with in IE and see if you still have trouble. If you dont its an IE problem if you do it might be something else.

Its possible that they are still there, I'd personally run a HiJackThis scan and post the output, then if nothings found run a Combofix scan as well.

Assuming that you mean internet security instead of just antivirus you'll need antispyware and a firewall as well. Also if you're removing kaspersky you'll need one of these removal tools (at the bottom) to make sure its removed properly: http://support.kaspersky.com/faq/?qid=208279463

Again dont follow above link, I did but I've got NoScript installed on my browser. Either pcgeek is a spammer (as I expect) or they infected themselves with something else.

A full reinstall is a last restort, but since you're not giving any decent info theres no point in trying to help you. Go into the BIOS make the first boot device the cd-rom.

If you want to get to the bootom of what is filling up your harddrive then download FilePro. It will tell you what files are taking up the most space.

Well if it connected and didn't prompt for a password you dont have one. You'll need to set one up, and I'd go for WP2-AES security.

I would suggest that you might not be connected to your network and probably a neighbours unsecured network. I take it the OS is XP? If it is then double click on the network icon in your taskbar and select your network from the list of found networks. Its naughty usinf someone elses internet...

If you have access to another computer download Superantispyware and Malwarebytes on it, copy them to a usb drive and install them on the infected computer. Try to update and run their scans.

Well I'd say Avira but its personal preference.

appdata is where programs sort info relevant for the user in question. Something has corrupted it so deleting it means that the program needs to write new user settings.

OK. Exit Skype go to Start>Run and type Type: %appdata% delete folder "Skype" in the window that appears. Re-run Skype and log in as normal. That should fix it.

The chrome browser comes with a sandiebox built in.

I personally wouldn't use either because there are free programs that do the job better. If I was going to pay it would be Kaspersky of Nod32 from eset. Dave they do it to make more money.

Why have you got Avast running and AVG running?? You should only have one antivirus running at once. I'd remove AVG. If its ease of use you want with security to match comodo you should try PCTools Firewall.

The it sounds like something is wrong with the drive, have you tried dvd-r's dvd and cd RW's? Another brand of CDR. You need to trouble shoot it. As a last resort you could try updating the firmware.

Its old news, they target BT traffic because apparently it makes up the most traffic over their networks, unlike virgin who cap all traffic at peak times. Anyway this might be of some use: linky
