    • Cannot get rid of the Tazinga trojan horse to save my life and I'm under constant assault by outside sources as evidence by firewall warnings I keep getting.

    Anywhere you recommend outside the Columbus area?

    Not sure but it keeps directing me to other sites like tazinga.com and others. I also cannot download any Windows Updates.

    I also keep getting firewall warnings that someone is attacking ports on my computer.

    Do you have an anti virus? There are free ones out there.

    I have Norton.

    I also have run Spyware Doctor, Malwarebytes, and SuperAntiSpyware to no avail.

    Wow, Norton is not picking it up at all. Did you call them? They offer tech support. You are paying them for a reason.

    If you don't have a system builder version of windows you can call Microsoft too.

    I think they both do online tech support too. That is normally faster, but of course you are not talking to someone (more like IM).

    are you able to burn CDs?

    If so, burning off all of your critical data and re-installing the O/S is the best option since you already have an infection.

    ^^This...or just use a usb flash drive. Reformat and save the $$$$. It only takes about 30-45 minutes to reinstall from scratch. If you take it somewhere they are going to rape you in comparison.
