for protecting my pc? The Norton anti-virus has scanned my pc and was not able to remove the spyware. I have disconnected my pc from the internet to prevent further exposure. Warning messages that keep popping up inform me that it's a category 5 virus on a scale of 0-5. What can i do to save my pc?

I like to use
Threat fire.

It has no trial limit and its Easy on the Resources

And Maybe if you have resources to spare you can Try

C.O.M.O.D.O. Firewall.

I just don't have the resources to run it all the time.

I hate anti-virus software. If you are just responsible on the internets, you shouldn't need it. All they do is take up system resources. Download Spybot S&D and download CCleaner. Both are free and very powerful. Make sure on CCleaner you run both the Windows cleaner and the Registry cleaner.

Use there scan and verify Nortons findings.

Get rid of Nortons, get Trend Micro, be responsible online and you really shouldn't have problems at all.
