Hi Friends, Upon a recommendation I have installed Advanced System Care 93. It seems to be doing what it claims. I have not yet paid anything to upgrade but wonder if this is just another 'cash cow'? Anyone got any advice on ASC 93 please?

Spambot has taken hold of my computer and is sending out emails to my clients, friends and family. If someone could help me get this off of my computer, I would appreciate it. I do need the information in laymen's terms, I'm so not IT (but I learn quickly).
