Hello,

Just ordered a new laptop and will want to transfer files from old laptop and ext hardrive on to it. Problem is lately have had loads of pop up ads and a number of websites not working properly. I run spybot and adware regularly but problems are still there.

So how can I scan / clean all files on old laptop and ext hardrive before I move them to new laptop.

Cheers
