    Operating System Problems (XP Home Edition)

    Ill start it all off from here

    I have the following things on my computer for protection
    (Please offer suggestions in regards to what I should alter)

    1) AVG Antivirus 7.0
    2) Xoftspy Protection
    3) Spyware Doctor 2.1
    4) Registry Mechanic 3.0
    5) Privacy Guardian 3.0
    (bleaching free space sounds bad to me,so I don't)
    6) Tweak XP 4 Professional
    7) Uninstalled Windows Service Pack II
    8) Sygate Personal Firewall

    Okay, with AVG I have killed the halloween/trick or treat virus hoax thats been getting to peoples computers. AVG seems to pick up a lot more
    things that a legal version of Norton or Panda says it can't remove.

    But now I hear a deep laughing voice every now and then while
    going on websites and just like anybody I would like it removed.

    I have tried everything and I really dont wanna mess around with
    my registry (RUN + REGEDIT) unless I really know what im doing,
    so if anyone has had this occor before,what type of file should I
    be looking for so I can delete it?

    I also cannot System Restore or Recover but I believe that thats
    because of something in the control panel that can be easily changed.
    If this can't be easily changed can somebody please tell me what I
    should be going to. As a student im still learning a lot even though
    I know a good bit so please let me know what I can do about this.

    Thank you for your time and attention

    P.S
    There also seems to be a second administrator account hiding on my computer and I plan to fix it with a form of software from a friend
    called ATG or ARG Commander that lets you reset passwords without
    even knowing about it. I just have to wait until Tuesday, which bites.

    Thanks for helping if you can....
