Well, I've been having this problem for months. I use Ad-Aware SE Personal to clean my computer of spyware regularly. The only problem is, it seems like the stuff I get rid of comes back as soon as I get back on the Internet. Why is this? I don't go on any sites that are prone to viruses or such, so I have no idea why the same crap keeps reappearing.

Also, I use a Linksys Wireless system for my Internet connection. For some reason, when I check connection strength, it always seems to be listed as a speed of 1.0 MBPS with a strength of either Low or Very Low. Yet, my mother's computer, which is a floor below the computer I use and about 35 feet to the left, works flawlessly. The router is also in the same room as my mother's computer. Could somebody tell me why my connection sucks?
