Check this out. It'll work better than what that kid is telling you.

And SP2 means Service Pack 2. If you have Windows XP, you should go to their update site and download it as soon as you can. It blocks a lot of crap from coming into your computer.

As I suggested above, I'd get Spyware Doctor and run it. Do you have AIM? I can send it to you.

It's called Spyware Doctor and I DO have a copy of it when it used to be free. If you have some kind of messaging program I can send you the older version that still gets updates.
