Im not very computer literate and my computer unfortuneatly has many problems that I cannot solve my self.
I have AVG the free addition and it pops up saying that i have trojans, viruses and dailers etc.... I run AVG and it seems to find them all and delete them but then in another 5 mins later the same virus warnings appear saying to run AVG again. I dont seem to be able to remove this anoying problem. It seems to delete then re-install again Can any one help.

beside making sure your antivirus is updated before you run the scan, try installing Spybot and Ad-aware.

DO I turn off system restore then restart, then scan? or do I just turn it off then scan then turn it back on?

I downloaded SpyBot Search & Destroy and Spyware Blaster and I scanned Spybot and it came up with results and I then Removed/Deleted its results and then I still have the viruses and trojans, dialers etc.... poping up. It dont seem to be doing anything.
Thanks for the help though any more ideas?
