so i was being really dumb and downloaded a game off of limewire and im guessing it had a virus attached cause my mozilla firefox started to work really slow and finally stopped working even after i updated it. i also have safari so thats how im asking this question lol. anyways i downloaded the free version of avast antivirus which is like 60 days to use and it found a load of viruses in my comp. everytime i start my computer it says "so and so" virus has been found!" and i move it to the virus chest. even after alot of computer scans from avast and moving all the viruses they find to the chest, my computer is still acting slow and mozilla works but is really really slow. anyways,
HOW CAN I WIPE OUT ALL THESE VIRUSES TO GET MY COMPUTER BACK TO WORKING FAST????
thanks
sorry i didnt really make my question that clear but im basicly wondering how i can wipe out the viruses with avast after scanning them i send them to the virus chest from there how do i wipe them out? btw im 13 so im not that good at this stuff. thanks

Well depends
If you are willing to pay for a specialized guy to fix your computer.
Which is what i recommend
Or just download a couple other anti viruses and anti spywares such as
Spybot
Avg
Avira
These are all free so if you don't want to pay you can try and fix it yourself.
and next time don't download stuff withouth anti viruses
Edit:
Thats not true i have used the above mention anti viruses and anti spywares for a long time and they do remove the viruses and spyware.
They are free, use them they will probably fix your problem
Edit2:
there should be a delete or empty chest option in the virus vault

Free antiviruses won't remove anything at all, after a scan is complete it asks to buy the full version in order to remove the viruses. Try DEFENDER PRO 5 in 1 install it and it will remove evrything its for 20 dollars at TARGET or WAL-MART.

Go click the avast icon on the desktop and let the program do the memory test after go click the hard drives you need to scan and the when it says it found a virus keep on clicking delete. Avast is always free just go register your self at there website, it's free you just need a email adress to get the serial number.
