I had my fill of that experience. Some files labeled as
spyware or adware, I can't remember which, I couldn't even get off my
computer.

Drop MicroSoft completely. Install Linux. No more spyware, no more
adware and no more virii, no more defragging your hard drive.

You can buy cheap cd's of Linux Distributions here:

You can find a ton of information and download links for 
a zillion distributions here:

If you want something to change, you have to change something.

Good luck.
