system

ok, i’ve done most of that stuff above (except turning off java in other browsers since i rarely if ever use them & have too many other things to do right now to bother)
would i be able to get your assistance regarding my other computers? i’m not sure if you read above, but for awhile i was w/o home internet service, so was taking my (OTHER) computers - a laptop & a netbook - & using the free wifi places around town. not the best idea i guess, but i didn’t have a lot of other choices. i tried not to purchase anything while doing that but i probably slipped up a time or two. (& yes, i’ve had some issues since then, just recently in fact, & i don’t know if they’re related to that timeframe or what - i just got home access again starting at the beginning of april)
i’d like to know what i can run on these other machines, which i’ve barely used lately. should i install & run all those same programs, even tho i haven’t had them on long enough to see if i’d get any trojan (or other) popup warnings or anything? i definitely feel somewhat insecure now after having a couple issues related to a couple of online sites.
any hope would be greatly appreciated.
