hmm, what type of C/V is the worst? - All of them. Bots, Worms, Trojans, all of them. Well Trojans does more damaged by leaking your information to only god know who.
But all of them are.

This is why kids, you should always have a Condom ready for those nasty Viruses!

Still nothing detective on my side.
It was the evil Virus Remover that actually made my computer less secure and sure did I regret downloading it so much.

Do not be fooled by ads, they'll give you viruses. Getting a free iPhone or whatever from ads will give you virus, the ones who did this may hack into your computer, I think.

Here's a way to stop ads from tempting you to click on them. - AdBlockPlus.

I have a better solution: Don't click on them lmao it's their fault if they click on it out of curiosity.

Well yes, but my solution will also make web-browsing so much faster, because you don't have to load the ads, and it cleans up the page too.

Boo, fucking hoo. - Joey can't make people turn off ad block plus.

And besides he actually does still make money regardless if AdBlockPlus is on, the owner of the ad only pays Joey to advertise it, they can't detect if a person is using AdBlockPlus.

AdBlockPlus hides ads, it's literally a placebo blocker. You might as well turn it off and install Common Sense antivirus.

The worst I've had is a virus that actually re-wrote my old computer's motherboard, thereby annihilating my poor computer. On my new computer the worst I had was TermCoach, which wasn't overly difficult to remove, but sure was annoying.

What do you mean on your old computer? - How would it get stuff from your old computer are re-write it on your new one?
Unless you didn't mean your personal old computer.
