I see that there are other posts regarding these viruses, but I don't know very much about computers and don't know if I should follow the directions given to those posters or not since we have different computers. (?)
Anyway, problems started a week after I installed AVG Free edition. I have since uninstalled it and its components ( I think) and installed Avast instead, but every 5 or 10 seconds I am being warned of these 2 main threats: Win32:Sirefef-AHF
Please help me! This is my boyfriend's computer and I feel awful about ruining it
