ook so. my computer has been fine. but today i got on here and every so often like 3 pop up websites saying my computer could have spyware and blah blah would come up but its those advertisment kind that want you to buy the product. also my desktop background is changed to say the same thing. i went to control panel & the programs and deleted anything that looked unusual. but if its a virus i dont know how i got it bc the only websites i use are myspace, advicenators, and then like shopping/school stuff and im the only one thats uses this computer. also music on myspace/itunes wont play anymore and neither will videos. it says its playing but it just sits and 0:00. WTF is going on !? it's only been doing this since this morning and i dont really have the money to get this computer wiped out/fixed !
