Computer malfunctioning. Virus scan says there are a lot of questions. What does that mean?

Original title: question about items

My computer is not working properly, so I scan for viruses and spyware. When the scan is finished, he said as he scanned 496 117 points. What are ALL these? I have nothing really saved that I know, about 150 songs and some programs, but nothing like this! Where can I find them or do I even have to remove them? Thanks in advance for any help!

I'm speculating here. But he sounds the alarm when reading your post. So, I have to answer this. If I am mistaken, my apologies.

What did you use to search for viruses?
You go to the site and use one of these 'free scanning' offer?
And done at the end of scanning, in addition to tell you that you have zillions of viruses, it is also suggested that you buy a product to get rid of the virus?

If that were the case, it was a centuries-old scam. Don't fall for it.

Install one of the programs legitimate AV (antivirus), use it to the anti-virus scanning, do not scan virus online. (except Windows Live OneCare, which is legitimate).
Here are 2 free programs that you can choose. They are one of the best:
Free avast home edition
Microsoft Security Essentials.
