I have been using the internet for last few years and everything worked fine. However, until few months ago, I could not defend from all sorts of viruses and adwares. I reinstalled OS several times but it did not help me for a long. After a day or two on the Internet, I have the same problems again. Now my Norton Internet Security preventing all the pop-ups. Should I replace it or my Internet browser?

Of course, there are other browsers beside the Internet Explorer. Some of the most popular are MSN and Firefox. Many users also claims that they are so much better and safer then the Internet Explorer. I personally disagree with them. I am also on the Internet many hours per day, I am using Internet Explorer and I do not have any problems. I think that you should replace Norton Internet security, because it prevents normal working. To solve your problems you need some anti-spyware software like SpyBot Search & Destroy, which is completely free. Second thing you need is some good anti-virus software which is also free. I personally use AVG 8.0 and I am completely satisfied. If you have Windows XP, you also have to check do you have Service Pack 2 installed. If don't then download and install it. All those things will not slow your machine much but will give you enough protection.
