   The simplest guaranteed fix is to install linux. You will never get a virus   
   that you don't personally write or install yourself. Thus from your   
   admission of being a computer tardon you can just as easily learn linux and   
   get things done as you can learn to try to keep your winbloz machine   
   working. I highly recommend you try SuSE as it is cheap, easy to configure   
   and install and has the most intuitive desktop. For Win/Mac users, it's the   
   easiest switch. The added bonus is the (YOU)updater will work   
   automatically, just like you're used to. You'll have to learn a few really   
   basic essentials like the role of root user and how to remember passwords,   
   but most things are done for you. Every program you are using now has a   
   free/open source alternative that does what you need.
