This one is free but it only scans for viruses already on your computer, it doesn't prevent them.\n\nhttp://www.pandasoftware.com/

One of the most popular free anti-virus software is AVG free, A nice simple program that does the job well.\n\nThis can be downloaded at http://www.download.com/AVG-Anti-Virus-Free-Edition/3000-2239_4-10503939.html?tag=lst-0-2\n\nor\n\nVisit the homepage at http://www.grisoft.com/doc/1

Even though your particular virus scan did not pick anything up, your computer is still badly infected. No single one virus scanner can detect 100% of all viruses and other malware !00% or the time. \n\nI would suggest that you try both of these free on-line scans (no download needed)\n\n1. Scan for virus and remove (free online scan) with BitDefender\n\nhttp://www.bitdefender.com/site/home/\n\n2. Scan for trojans and remove (free online scan) with Ewido\n\nhttp://www.ewido.net/en/\n\nGood luck.

Not to my knowlage you can do the free virse scans off the websites and do it that way.  All anti-virus companys are pretty much the same.  Do not load more then one virse scanner on your computer because they will start to fight each other and make your computer run slow.

You can download a free rootkit detector from http://www.sophos.com (Will scan for a hidden folder).  \n\nAlso there is a free software that protects you from "zero day attacks".  Attacks that hit your system, well before any security  comapny as  knowledge of the virus or spyware.\nhttp://www.cyberhawk.com  \n\nTemp., shut down your existing antivirus program, as it is obvious that the program failed you.  Download thier free home for personal use, Avast antivirus program.  They will ask you for your email so the can send you a key that is good for one year.  After one year you must ask for a new key.  Scans all 195,000 objects in my system, including IE7, MSN Messenger.  Has one of the very best background scanners that would have caught in realtime the virus you have and destroyed before it was able to get into your system.  Updates two or three times per day.\n\nTheir corporate version is the same, they just make corportate pay.   http://www.avast.com\n\nA2Squared V 2.1 their free for home use.  Also try this one.  (I use it as scans 195,000 objects, has rootkit detection and rogue dialer protection.  They will ask you for your email address so they can send you a free key that is good for life.  (I have the paid version, not sure if your updates will be auto., or manual).\nhttp://www.emsisoft.com\n\nI use all of the above an I have never had one virus in nine years with avast.  Cyberhawk and Sophos is new technology.\n\nGood luck, \n\nNone of the above programs will give you conflict with your other program.  Only the Avast as you can only run one antivirus program.  You can run three or for antispyware programs without conflict.  \n\nClinical Psychiatrist, France
