I am currently running Windows ME and have been bombarded with viruses and
trojan horses that I can't seem to get rid of. I've tried running several
things from AVG to CWShredder to Ad-Aware but none have completely got rid of
them. I now have Windows XP to install on my computer and I'm wondering if I
install XP will it get rid of all of the spywares and viruses? If not, do I
have to completely reset my computer and reprogram it? Thanks!
