My new laptop that I got yesterday now has viruses. I think like 30 of them or so. The internet won't work and I can't remove them because I have not yet registered for the virus software. What am I supposed to do?

Are they just viruses that you got from visiting websites?

If so, deleting the internet history should work.

If you downloaded something and THEN got them, I'll find a solution for ya..

Well I just formatted it because I had not downloaded anything yet. Do you know any free good virus software?

AVG isn't that bad, but isn't the best either. Apparently (as according to the other Umbrella Members) Avast is pretty good.
