on my computer!! Its my laptop from work. I've brought it in twice already and had it cleaned out, but I come home today and an antispyware program installed itself. I keep running symantic and restarting and it keeps showing up. I dont understand. I stopped going on myspace as much. I basically only come on here, AOL, and wedding related websites, oh and youtube. Why does this keep happening. I feel bad to keep bringing it back into work.

Re: UGH.. I keep getting viruses
UGH that *****! Is the firewall turned on?
ETA: If you are running Symantic at work, that means that unless you log onto your work system at home through VPN or something, Symantic IS NOT RUNNING when you are home. You could be getting them that way.
Or, maybe the virus definitions are not being updated as often as they should be?

Thanks. My boss said to run Symantac regularly. They just cleaned it out 2 weeks ago. I updated the virus protection and am running it again to see if it works.
What downloaded is a toolbar that is called security toolbar is 7.1 and Anitspywareshield.

Re: UGH.. I keep getting viruses
Ok, so symantic is on your laptop, not on the server at work, so it's on even if you are home. Gotcha.
Wish I could help more! MySpace is terrible, I hardly ever go on anymore and when I do, it's just to check my own messages really. :) And to occasionally say hi to a friend on their page. I never click on people's profiles if I don't know them. In fact, I changed my settings so that you can only send me a friend request if you know my last name. I get a looooot less now, which is fine because I am not on myspace to meet new people, just to catch up and stay connected with those I know already.
Good luck!

Thats the only reason I go on now as well. I'm going to go change my settings for requests now... Oh man, now I'm thinking, yesterday I got a request from someone and I looked at the page to see if I knew them STUPID!!! Thanks for trying to help though.

Yeah I did this once and got some crazy virus. Change your password on myspace often too, so no one can hack it.
