Hi I have a Windows Xp system. It is running REALLY slow and I think I have spyware. I do have Norton Internet Security, and it is up to date, but it is saying no files are infected. I did a scan on spyonthis.com and it says I have 100+ infected files..Please help me, I have no idea what to do.I share this computer with my 14 year old and he downloads tons of stuff, and I am freaking out!! Please help me, but I really don't know too much about these computers..
Thanks You in advance!!
Worm detected, but so new/confused, what to do?
