Good system, bad security

I loved my laptop, but the biggest problem was security. At a point in time I was doing a reformat no less then every other day, in many cases every day or multiple times a day. And it was always 1 thing or another, massive spyware, massive virus's, massive lockups. And what your probably thinking, this guys a computer nub and doesn't know how to take care of it. Well sorry thats not true, i take care of my computer better then most people, i had 3 top of the line spyware removers, antivirus that was always fully updated, and popup blockers/stoppers. and i didn't have programs such as limewire/kazza file sharing. I would get a virus for just getting on the internet, checking my yahoo/gmail email, and going to secure sites like google. I am going to sell my computer because of this issue, and am going to buy a new one. But besides security this system was very good.
