Computer help needed

When I bought this laptop 2 days ago, I forgot to create a restore point.

I was being heavily attacked yesterday by trojans, hijackers, malware, and everything else you could think of. I have Adaware, AVG, Spybot. They helped a lot, but there is stuff still in my computer I can't get rid of. I know the only antivirus programs that truly work have to be bought, like Registry mechanic, and other PC tools products. Are there any that you can recommend that are free and useful? Thanx..

They've already screwed up some of my registry entries. I know this because I get "Run dll" error messages on startup.

I'm thinking of TrendMicro to download.

Any help would be appreciated.

Horizon problem

A friend and I at work are having a debate over how far the horizon is. If you're at sea, how far would it be to the horizon?

I learned years ago that it was about 7 miles. He claims it's 6 miles. I didn't have a working computer until today, so I couldn't google it. Now that I have a working computer, I'm getting the run around with different searches. Too many long winded mathematical explanations.

Help!!! anyone...thanx....lol

Finally back online

About 3 weeks ago, my computer kept shutting down on me. I finally had to get a used one because all attempts to fix the old one was futile.

Spending nearly a week at a local shop to be fixed, and after 2 hard drives, the poor repair guy gave it back to me at no charge because he couldn't fix it. He thinks it's the mother board. So instead of just paying upwards of 3 to 4 hundred bucks to fix it, I just bought another used one, but with an insurance program of 12 bucks a month.

It's good to be back. I was getting LP withdrawls big time...lol

Caramel popcorn, bowling balls, and campfire heat

When I was young I used to pray for a bike, then I realized that God doesn't work that way, so I stole a bike and prayed for forgiveness.

 

A lady says to the psychiatrist, "I think I might be a nymphomaniac." He says, "I'll see what I can do to help you. My fee is eighty dollars an hour." She says, "How much for all night?"

 

There was a man who entered a local paper's pun contest. He sent in ten different puns, in the hope that at least one of the puns would win. Unfortunately, no pun in ten did.
