Computer Problems

I am ready to put my fist through my computer today! Seems I had acquired a virus, and it enjoyed booting me offline every time I tried to do something. I haven't even finished dropping my ecards yet, and it's almost 3! With the help of my dad I downloaded new anti-virus stuff and it seems to have found and done away with the virus, so maybe I can get some work done. I am so computer stupid that it took me about 2 hours to figure out how to download and install everything. I think I need to go to the library and find a book on how to figure this stuff out.
