    Is using alot of CPU(well like between 15-25% when a song is playing)

    Whhhhyyyyyy

    Virus? I know I have a virus that I'm just too lazy to deal with at the current moment, but it wasn't doing this when I first got it


    Also, like 3 weeks ago, I used IE for like 30 seconds, literally, I opened it and typed in ytmnd.com to watch one thing, BOOM virus, fuck you IE

    mediaplayer is just a RAM hog.. just like any other windows program.. personally i use mediamonkey

    and using IE is just asking to be infected by something.. switch to FireFox...

    Winamp is pretty awesome, but I have like near 5,000 songs on my computer and they're sorted in a very OCD alphabetical way, and when I tried WinAmp once it would've required changing the name files on like 1,400 songs to get it right, and I was like fuck that

    have it, use it, spybot doesn't really deal with viruses though, it's more of malware type of thing


    NEW QUESTION!

    Alright, in regards to the virus, what's the program, it's a really small simple thing that lets you choose a file and it'll delete it since often virus files won't let you delete cause "this file is currently in use" ect, I thought it was hijack this but I was wrong, even though finding that again was helpful

    for free virus protection i use avira, threatfire and avast which are all great programs.
    i, too, recommend mediamonkey as a music player and opera as a web browser since they are both small and effcient programs; plus opera has a built in .torrent downloader.
