Think I had a virus or trojan

What makes the CCleaner crap? Not upset with your comment just wondering. I use it mainly to remove cookies from sites I have browsed and fix registry errors.

I have ran and currently run Norton 360 for the 7 yrs I have had my computer. Norton 360 has optimization and cleaning as well but don't use as much as the ccleaner.
Norton has worked extremely well IMHO but the only thing I dislike about the Norton 360 is it checks my pictures for virus (I guess) and it causes problems managing attachments. I have had to restart my computer because of this numerous times. I have a external hard drive that I have all my pictures on now and it doesn't freeze up as it does with the pictures that are on my computers hard drive (Norton).

I still have some days left on my Norton subscription but have always used Norton and afraid to use anything else. It seems however that since owning a computer that anti virus programs have became free and are just as good as Norton. Just can't make the jump. The Microsoft Security Essentials sounds like a good one and the fact that it is Microsoft.

Off topic.... I been wanting to upgrade to Windows 7 but my computer graphics card is not up to par, and also my computer (Sony PCV-RS420) doesn't produce enough voltage to run 7. I guess I would have to buy another computer wouldn't I?
