[QUOTE="tallorder, post: 343905, member: 33208"] The problem is: I only ran Panda for a certain scan, and they said Uninstall was simply a click away and simple... So I did the scan, and was unable to uninstall Panda. Then, I used Revo Uninstaller on Panda, thought I had it! Then, I saw some remnants, and used McAfee shredder, and thought I got it! Now, I see I didn't, it appears... This is a desktop, not laptop, so maybe can add more RAM? What I am trying to achieve is 2 things: 1.to have this computer salvageable: past Windows XP SP3 , and not crash it or slow it down anymore in the process. It is so amazingly slow, that I can really only have one page open at a time, such as MT and not ..ABC news. If I am unable to get past XP,sp3, it is total junk, not even fit for a backup or the grandkids! 2. to learn on this one, how to set up a computer, what is needed to maintain one, what I like to use...(have never tried things such as Unchecky, or Revo Uninstaller, or changed/alternated between virus/malware programs: have never hardened or maintained a computer. I have only used it- turn it on, go look, answer emails,turn it off! The future does not warrant inability or lack of knowledge and experience like I have been doing! Malware is sneakier, faster, prevalent, unseen, and there is ransomware, and other dangers out there now, that just weren't around 20-30 yrs. ago and I need to learn! I need to know how to harden a computer, do backups, scans, deep scans, and since I am getting ready to have a computer built, learning what is good (processor/hardware/ etc.) and what will be too slow in 6 months!
