Well, my dipshit dumbass cousin mass downloaded a bunch of bullshit again from vague, hidden, unknown sites with unknown, unmarked .exes, so I have to deal with the fact this shit laptop lags EVEN MORE than usual with its shit hardware specs and long use.
I can't even keep IE open for more than a couple minutes, or read Hotmail, because of this incessantly annoying virus that makes it lag, then forces it to close. I don't think it's a keylogger, since I don't know why people would want my hotmail password.
So, Newgrounds, help me find a way to get rid of this annoying thing, because I really, really, really, really would like not to reformat, since I have to download all my stuff, again.

You should try a good AV/AS software. It tends to be spyware that makes your computer run slower than usual.
I recommend ZoneAlarm, though you need to be tolerant of the continuous alerts. Just clicking Accept on everything will get you nowhere. It also needs money.
If you're strapped for cash, you can try AVG Free. That probably won't cure things 100% though.
Sorry if I completely misunderstood your problem.

Shut up, faggots. Go back to eBaums and be pricks there.
I want something that'll rape everything bad on here, 100%, not just this virus. I'm sure there are more than I think. Such a program exists?

Bullshit. I've used it long enough to spam macro hate mail towards McAFee, telling them their bullshit program was just leeching money to make me lag and spam popups with great offers on protection packages.

Wow, people are actually trying to help you and you go off and call them fags. Go to a computer shop and have them clean it.
Don't trust me.

Backup all your precious data on a disk or an external hard drive and reformat. I really can't think of anything else

Shut the fuck up you raging faggot. People are trying to help you and you call them faggots, telling them to "go back to eBaums and be pricks there". You don't deserve any help, mister.

Before getting a program, have you tried the basics? Like deleting teporary internet files, and other stuff like that? I've had cases similar to this, and after deleting that stuff, it worked fine. Just curious.
I'm Robotnik07 and I approve this message...even though others probably don't.

Well, if the computer lags and causes you it to automatically close the internet explorer, then how did you do all of this? The best solution is to not allow that retard of a brother on your computer.

No Mcafee isn't a virus/adware/spyware/keylogger/trojan.
