Recently, using one of this sites tutorials, I rid myself of Win 7 Virus. Great!! Used the Dell Mini for two days and now its reinfected. Its suppose to have an updated Trend Micro Internet Suite on it - Why is this happening??? Was there pieces of the first virus still on - or was it reinfected? I only used malwarebytes on it the first time - should I use another anti malware software to double check it?? Any help would be great appreciated! Thanks!

You can still get infected even if you have a good anti-virus. See this:
