Try the Norton 360 30-Day free trial here. Norton is a really good program.

Slow? Get a MacMini.
Inefficient? I wouldn’t say so.

And because I agree to what maxskywalker said about Macs failing.

Re: Virus!
Try Avast! Free. Seems pretty good and does the job.
However, can you give me the name of the virus/trojan and I will give you recovery steps.
DO THIS THOUGH:
Back up your files onto a disk/usb stick. DO NOT COPY ANYTHING ELSE
ONLY BACK UP:
Documents
Music
Pictures
Anywhere else could be infected. However, you will most likely wish to save those 3 folders.

I got rid of three files already that contained the trojan
You must look up how to destroy the rootkit. The rootkit is the thing that came in a perfectly innocent file that is legitimate, but was an extra snippet of code that inserted the trojan into your system. IF you recently downloaded a file, DO NOT OPEN IT. At all. Because it most likely will bind it to System32 in which you may have to get a computer technician to restore your registry, since deleting a file in System32 can be dangerous. Wait, three files? CALL A COMPUTER GEEK NOW— TECHNICIANS ARE OVERRATED. YOU HAVE BEEN MASS INFECTED!
BTW, was it alureon trojan? I need the name.
