i have lots of questions so i figured id put them all down in 1 post


-when i try to use the task manager, it says it has been disabled by the computer administrator...but i'm the administrator! how can i re enable it?

-is avast antivirus a legit program? even if it is, does it do a good job or am i just better off erasing it off my computer?

-ive used adaware, housecall, spybot SD, avast virus scanner and registry mechanic over and over and none of them are finding all of the errors/viruses in my computer....is there anything else i can use that will actually work? i dont mind paying for it, i have a CC, but i need to be able to download the program since i need it right away....

-is there anywhere i can just download windows xp home edition to my computer? i have the serial i just dont have the disks anymore. (or xp pro i have a cd key for that too that my mom gave me)

-when i went on microsoft.com a while back and downloaded windows defender and the newest service pack neither of them worked on my computer....anyone know why this is?

those are all the questions i can remember for now, but i have many more that ill ask here if i think of them
