OHMYGOD.
well i haven't done this recently, but i'd go on porn websites and stuff, and get porn from limewire and whatever.
and my mom said that she might just start taking our computers in to check for that stuff, so is there any way i can delete all of it somehow??
i have a mac if that does anything.
please let there be a way!
because i was just being stupid when i went there.
oh man.
and this is a new laptop and...i dunno.
it doesn't really get pop ups so i can't blame it on that.
ugh. oh my god.
what can i do.

Maybe give some free advice about: Computers?
All you have to do is go into your limewire downloads folder and delete all the malicious files. Also go into your web browser's preferences and delete your internet history.
If you're using Firefox, if you click on "Tools" on the menu, there's an option that says "Clear Private Data" which should do the trick.
Aside from that, go to Spotlight file search (it's the magnifying glass on the top right corner) and search for .mpg .wmv .avi files and see if it still pulls up your porn movies (or search for .jpg and .gif) if you downloaded pictures and if nothing comes up, they're completely gone.
What's good is you have a Mac. It's not as easy to search and dig through (speaking about files that have already been deleted) and try to bring back deleted things. Especially if she goes to just a regular computer store. Even if she takes it to the Apple store, I doubt they'll fart around more than with just a file search if they even do it.
You should be good and shouldn't have to reformat.
Good luck, man!

Reformat it. This will not get rid of the porn completely but people who know about computers can find old files that were reformatted on the hard drive. Since, porn is very tricky where it hides stuff...reformatting will not do it alone. You will need a shredder software. Good luck!
