    Exclamation Computer Anti-Virus suggestions?

    About a week ago or so I got "Personal Anti Virus"....that peice of crap!! I knew it was fake right away because I already had Norton. As soon as I saw the icon appear in on my programs bar I was like OHH NNOOOOOOOOO(!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) In the past my old desktop had XP Anti Virus and after that It was fried....It kept restarting on it's own....trojan?? I thought that normally with these fake Anti Viruses you usually had to click on them and they embed themselves into your coumputer...

    It was smart too. When I went to google how to get rid of it, it would block just those sites. Luckily, I went to Yahoo Answers because I figured it wouldn't be smart enough to block that. A person replied with a link to a page deticated specially to get rid of it. It wasn't that bad. A copy and paste here, and a download for MalwareBytes anti-Malware. It got rid of it with one click. (personal AV)

    Will this keep my computer safe for now?

    I have Norton but it will expire really soon because I just got this computer and that's what ot came with. It didn't help anyway....It blocks things well but still didn't fully protect my laptop -_-

    What else is recommended besides MalwareBytes that is free?? any sugesstions?

    Ta DA!!!:

    Alright, who censored my rocketship?



    From The Clint Eastwood
    I'm thinking about creating a hybrid. A dolphin-monkey. Half dolphin, half monkey. Do you think it's possible?
    I was thinking that since I'm artificially creating it, I'll create it with rocket fuel instead of blood, and thus it will be able to fly, using the dolphin's dorsal fins as wings. And from the air, it will look down upon us all and protect us against sharks, and search for bananas.
