I've got major problems with my computer, I can't go on the web anymore (again I'm not at home). Which is the best antivirus I could buy? Or is it better to just bring it to the store to get it completely cleaned and erased of all information on it?

no need for a store.

Use your restore disks (or restore partition) to wipe your computer.

Then use firefox vice IE

Also I use a free antivirus called NOD 32 and have had no problems for about 1.5 years now.

I don't understand this sentence, Does "Vice" mean "instead of" in this instance, or is this some browser I am not familiar with??

yes "Vice" means "instead of" in this case

Firefox is indeed a browser.

I don't have the restore disc.
I have to be very brief, my time in this damn computer is very unpredictable.
