Now, my ailing computer. All was going well, them a message popped up telling me it was recommended I run a SystemDoctor scan. According to that, I've got over 2,000 things wrong on my computer & I need to pay £26.99 to have them fixed. Does anyone know if this is genuine, please?
Ignore it! It would report errors on a new clean system! You'll keep on getting that message poping up simply because you ran its scan.

There's plenty of free spyware software out there, even microsoft does a good one.

Make sure your anti-virus software is up to date and run a scan. You do have anti-virus software and a firewall don't you?
