Had a customer recently whose PC had 518 malware entries (discovered by AdAware) and 69 viruses !!!

Needless to say it had slowed to a crawl !!

I couldn't get rid of all the infections despite numerous attempts.

I installed Adaware, Spywareblaster and recommended AvastAV.

Her AVG hadn't been updated since install a year ago !
