I've looked at numerous sites and i just cant understand what to do to fix it. the steps are there i just dont know the computer lingo if someone could dedicate some time to helping me out i would greatly appreciate it. i tried to d/l some active control or somethin then the next thing i know i have a red x in my tool bar that every two min reminds me that my computer is infected. i click on the pop up and it takes me to some adware site and recommends i download their program. sorry if im posting in the wrong area, kinda new to the whole computer forums. thanks.
