yes i bought a trend antivirus kit.
it is basically the same as the one you download. Mine did that at first but i got my antivirus. I talked to the people at best buys and they said i shouldnt get on the internet till i gwt it all loaded, making me suggest you go with a non downloadable version.

I think using an Anti-Spyware will do the job.
