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.

◙ The very best virus scanners are free. Mcafee & Norton Antivirus are mostly hype and won't do as good as the free ones.\n\n◙ Download and install AVG. Use it first and see if it finds any viruses or trojans.\n\n► http://www.grisoft.com/\n\n◙ After running AVG go here and run this virus scanner online. There is no need to install it on your computer.\n\n► http://housecall.trendmicro.com/\n\n◙ Best spyware remover is Ad Aware. Download and instalkl the free version.\n\n◙ http://www.lavasoft.com/\n\n◙ Do yourself a favor and read their help and faqs pages.

CCleaner doesn't check for spyware.  This is from their own advertising information: "CCleaner is a freeware system optimization and privacy tool. It removes unused files from your system - allowing Windows to run faster and freeing up valuable hard disk space. It also cleans traces of your online activities such as your Internet history. But the best part is that it's fast (normally taking less than a second to run) and contains NO Spyware or Adware! :)"\n\nThe best way to learn about CCleaner is to go back to their website and read through their "quick tour".  It explains what each of the four modules does and how to run each of them.\n\nhttp://www.ccleaner.com/\n\nThen I'd suggest clicking on each of the sub-sections, especially Features, Screenshots and Help & Support.  \n\nHome - Features - Download - Screenshots - Reviews - Help & Support - Forum\n\nIn fact, the Help & Support section has a great FAQ.  I've been using CCleaner for over a year with zero problems.  When I use the Cleaner (which is the one with the Windows tab and Applications tab), I put a check in everything EXCEPT "Autocomplete Form History" because this would erase my stored passwords to various sites I visit. But this is my choice. I don't  bother cleaning the Applcations. Again, that's just my choice.  When I use Issues to clean my registry, I check everything and run it. Yes, I make a backup of the registry and save it on my desktop, but I've NEVER had to use it.  Hope some of this helps.\n\nplrr

Possible spyware on you're computer?

Try using AVG Anti-Virus, it is free and it is one of the best ones out there. Uninstall mcafee first though. Here is the link to download it. http://free.grisoft.com If you have anymore questions feel free to email me.

In my opinion, norton and mcafee both suck. These are the ones I use.\n\nAll of these are ones that I personally use and all are free.\n\nI-Worm/Stration · BackDoor.Generic3.GBB and .GBC · Worm/Generic.FX · Exploit.WMF\nhttp://free.grisoft.com/doc/5390/lng/us/tpl/v5\n\nSpybot - Search & Destroy detects and removes spyware, a relatively new kind of threat not yet covered by common anti-virus applications. Spyware silently tracks your surfing behaviour to create a marketing profile for you that is transmitted without your knowledge to the compilers and sold to advertising companies. If you see new toolbars in your Internet Explorer that you haven't intentionally installed, if your browser crashes inexplicably, or if your home page has been "hijacked" (or changed without your knowledge), your computer is most probably infected with spyware. Even if you don't see the symptoms, your computer may be infected, because more and more spyware is emerging. Spybot-S&D is free, so there's no harm giving it a try to see if something has invaded your computer.\nhttp://www.safer-networking.org/\n\nhttp://superantispyware.com/\nSUPERAntiSpyware is the most thorough scanner on the market. Our Multi-Dimensional Scanning and Process Interrogation Technology will detect spyware that other products miss! SUPERAntiSpyware will remove ALL the Spyware, NOT just the easy ones!\nEasily remove over 100,000 pests such as SmitFraud, Vundo, WinFixer, SpyAxe, SpyFalcon, WinAntiVirus, AntiVermins and thousands more!\nMake sure after you download any of these, that you update them.

Restart your computer, click on windows start button, go to 'Programs' and select the Mcafee anti-Virus program. If it does not open, it means your computer is having a virus attack. In that case I suggest you reformat your hard-disk and re-install all the programs. Make sure you have the recent Mcafee anti-virus scan engines and virus definitions.

if you're using XP don't put McAfee on it anyway. Stick with Symantec products. But here's a hint...new pc's downloading anything without internet protection, ESPECIALLY with bearshare, is just AKSING to get a trojan!

You may need to scan your computer using more than one anti-spyware programs. Windows defender, Hijackthis, avg antispyware, ad aware se personal, spybot s&d etc. Not all spyware are detected by any one single program.

To the earlier answerer, AVG Free is for viruses, not spyware.\n\nTo answer the question, spyware or malware can both eventually slow down your computer a lot.  To scan for those download adaware (anti-spyware) and 'a squared' (anti-malware.)  See the links below for both of those.\n\nYou can also try another virus checker, such as Avast.  Sometimes viruses are written to circumvent one scanner specifically.  Avast also has a feature to run a scan at computer boot-up so that it can have access to windows system files that may be affected.

Get a virus scan from Mcafee they do the best job of gettin rid of viruses

It's best to scan with several virus/spyware programs. There's several online ones free that you can use. Avast has an awesome security center and is the newest popular one. I like panda and bitdefender best because they've found the most viruses. Bitdefender is slower but supposedly high rated. Norton causes crashes on startup sometimes and is pretty slow to begin with. AVG is a lemming that tells you where the virus is and doesnt really remove it. You can find more on viruses at http://majorgeeks.com/ Adaware is best for removing spyware.\nhttp://www.jimmyr.com/security.php
