Hi VistaKing,

yes thank you I did. I noticed my previous version of adobe had no new updates so they must have started a new program or something. Thanks for the heads up on the out of date programs..

hkfish,
Please Verify Java Version
Uncheck any toolbar and/or software offered with the Java update.
The Java Quick Starter (JQS.exe) that comes along adds a service to improve the initial startup time of Java applets and applications. If you don't want to run another extra service, go to:
Start > Control Panel > Java > Advanced > Miscellaneous
Uncheck the box for: Java Quick Starter
Click OK and restart your computer.
Next, please remove any old Java version and its remnants...
Download JavaRa:
http://download.thewebatom.net/4eeb2...6-16-12-11.zip
Save to the Desktop and unzip it.
Right click on JavaRa.exe, and select: Run As Administrator
Choose the language of your choice and click: Select
Click: Remove Older Versions
Accept any prompts as they appear.
Adobe - Adobe Reader download - All versions
After installing the latest Adobe Reader, uninstall all previous versions (if present).
Unless you want the program installed, uncheck the box: Also Download Adobe Photoshop® Album Starter Edition
Alternatively, you can uninstall Adobe Reader, and Download Foxit Reader 6.0.3.0524 - FileHippo.com
It is a smaller file to download and uses a lot less resources than Adobe Reader.
When installing FoxitReader, make sure to uncheck any pre-checked toolbar, or any other offer.
When done with the above, please update as to whether you are experiencing any malware problems.

Thank you everyone who had input ridding me of viruses! You all did a fine job. I am not experiencing any malware problems so far and would be surprised if I did, as we did a pretty thorough job.
I hope if I get the professional version of Malwarebytes for extra real time protection along with Microsoft security essentials and Superantispyware hopefully that will do the majority of stuff.
Is there a good program to check that a file is clean before I download from the internet? I suspect I got the virus from a certain site but I'd love to be able to confirm this.
Many thanks
Karen

hkfish,
Thanks for the kind words.
It is best to have only 1 real time protection program running on your system.I hope if I get the professional version of Malwarebytes for extra real time protection along with Microsoft security essentials and Superantispyware hopefully that will do the majority of stuff.
What comes to mind is Web of Trust....program to check that a file is clean before I download from the internet
There are different versions depending on which browser is used.
For IE: WOT (Web of Trust) for Internet Explorer - CNET Download.com
Have a great week!!
