Seriously i never use the crap that comes on it. Get your windows product key that is installed then borrow a win 7 disc from someone and reinstall.

Screw Norton, AVG, Ad-aware, and Avast. Just pick up Malwarebytes Pro (around $20) and he's good to go.

No, I'm not a guru (obviously, right?) but yes, I have wiped, reinstalled OS, and reinstalled drivers. Haven't partitioned my pc but have partitioned my sd card on my phone, familiar with the concept. But you are correct, I don't really want to do this on my new PC right away. Is Decrappifier a real thing? I thought people were kidding.

And don't listen to Setsuna -- the paid version of Malwarebytes would be a fantastic purchase. You can couple it with something light-weight like Panda Cloud AV (free) if you'd like to be extra safe. I actually run this combo and have for over a year. I'd also do what Fish suggested and visit ninite.com on the new pc and go ahead and install what he listed -- makes it much easier than visiting each website independently. You have all the info you need

If it has Windows 7, you'll want to upgrade to Vista.

Might as well shoot yourself in the face while you're at it!
