Ok... I downloaded AVG... I used to have norton anti virus and it never detected anything. once i got AVG, I had like 28 threats. I didnt know what to do at the end of the scan, so i just deleted them all right there. guess their off my comp, i dont know. but anyways.. i was told i needed to download a spyware too. downloaded it and it found like 65 spyware stuff.. and like 300 threats.. lmao.. maybe this is the reason my comp is so slow and laggy. anyways.. after i scanned with the spyware, it said i had to buy it to fix the problems.. does anyone know a free spyware that fixes the problem???

SpyBot S&D is alright, I still use it now and again.
Ad Aware used to be good, but I find that it has gotten too bloated recently.
Spy Sweeper was rated pretty high on a few review sites, but it's not free unless you go with the usual channels...

it's called "spybot search and destroy"
you should be able to google it.
