Do I have to check my computer for virus everyday?

definitely once a week is fine,  just open your anti virus and schedule a scan for once a week at a time when you know you will be on your computer... but don't be afraid to do a scan yourself if you suspect  a virus due to the way your PC is acting...

Run the McAfee Online scan and if you don't have a Virus Program download AVG its Free.

I have AVG.  It is set to scan once a day, and to check for updates and automatically download them.  I have used AVG for a coupleof years and it has been good for the most part.\n\nBut, in the couple of days, computer has been infected with a couple of things, one of them was sasser worm.  Even the name of the file that showed up in my system32 folder should have been caught by the AVG because of the spelling, but it was not. (The file name was lsasss.exe.)\n\nI am now going to uninstallAVG and erase all the traces I can find of it off my system, and try Avast.\n\nThis isn't really much of an answer, sorry.

Not unless you installed something.\nYou could for example do that with a local proxy server.\nBut if you just want to check. No there's no such log.\nIf you think it's full of spyware and viruses run a virus\nand spyware checker.

Yes do not open anything from anyone you do not know. Even if you know them and they send it unexpectedly, ask them if it was really them that sent it.\nKeep your anti-virus up to date. I have mine update its self automatically every day while I eat breakfast.

almost do have virus in it, but this is what you do, just download it first without running it, then use your antivirus to scan it before running it.

You may have a virus posing as a security certificate.  Write down something from the pop-up and enter it into a search engine to see if it matches a virus.  If you have a router, see if your computer is continuously accessing the internet.

yes just make sure you have a anti virus checking it at all times.

If you have an up to date virus checker and a firewall you will be safe.  You may want to avoid dodgy websites like ones which offer free downloads of expensive software, music or porn.

Trend Micro  has an online virus scanner. It takes a while, but it's worth it if you don't want to download anything. If you can't get to their site, you definitely have a virus. You'll have to do a system restore.

Run your virus scan. If you don't have one you can do a free scan at trendmicro.com under the home/personal use section of the site. The scan will also try and clean the virus. If it can't clean it, it will tell you how to do it manually if it knows how.

Just download a free trial of a popular anti-virus program. Here are some:\n\nhttp://www.microsoft.com/athome/security/viruses/wsc/en-us/default.mspx\n\nNot updating puts you at greater and greater risk with each passing day.
