Emptying it is an okay idea, but I think the paperbin is a secure shell, so to speak. If there's a virus in there, it can't "break out".

If you can tell me what the computer is called, I can figure out what graphics card it is using. It'll probably be something along the lines of Satellite A 19-F1 or something. If you look at your receipt for it, or perhaps on the underside of the computer, you might be able to find it. If you ordered it over the internet, you should be able to find a receipt of sorts in your email inbox.
