Q: How common is it that random people will infect your computer with software to monitor your actual screen? I know spyware/malware is ubiquitous, but what about ones that monitor your exact screen?
Q: I have an old tower gateway with win 98. It caught a cold around 2000. We were in the process of moving so it went into storage and now I am trying to fix it. I do not have online. It boots. I want a virus scan and clean. Is there something I can burn to disc, put in, boot and it will scan and clean without deleting my files? I know I can just reinstall with my rescue disc but would prefer to just fix it. I have floppy and cd/dvd drives. I would also like to scan discs as I go in case the virus came from one. Thank-you! Thank-you! Thank-you!

Q: Hi. I have something on my computer called trustyhound. My antispyware does not seem to be able to get rid of it and/or keep it off my computer. I tried Spyware Doctor (paid version not the free one.), Avira, and tried to follow advice from other sites but my web searches still keep getting rerouted and trustyhound keeps coming back. I am also worried that someone may have my passwords. So, I’m wondering if you know how to manually remove it or some antispiware that really gets it off an keeps it off. My mom has Trustyhound too. I usually look up solutions to problems on the net, but nobody on the net seems to have any ideas that wrk that I understand. I would really appreciate any help getting rid of trustyhound. Thank you for your help.
Sincerely,
Michelle

Q: My dell dimension was destroyed by some kind of virus. It won’t even turn on. I’ve since replaced it, but I’m wondering what, if anything can be salvaged from the old one. 120G HDD, (2) memory cards, video card, DVD-ROM, CD burner. Intel 2.8 on Foxconn MoBo. It was running XP (SP3), and in good shape before the demise. I have replaced everything systematically, and it seems the only thing left to blame is the MoBO, as it is the only thing that has not been changed. Could any of the other hardware be any good?
