You say you can't update your virus/spyware database? It might be a new virus/spyware and you have to get the new definitions. If that is not possible in anyway than you have two options. Take it to a professional, might cost 20-60 bucks, or back up all your necissary files and reboot. I know you don't like hearing that but you must have seen it comming. Sorry there is not much that can be done.
Not much else you can do.. Unless you get someone to get the active X for an online scanner and send u the active X file but who knows if an online scanner is even good enough... But you might just have to do that..back up the files and totally clear out your HD. Not much else I can think of.. Next time, make sure you have the following (or programs like them at least..) Spyware: SpywareBlaster 3.4 Ad-aware SE Personal Spybot Search & Destroy Anti-Virus: Avast! Anti-virus Grisoft AVG Anti-virus Firewall: Zonelabs: ZoneAlarm Other cool tools: Crap Cleaner TuneUp Utilities DustBuster XP 2.8.2 MRU-Blaster PerfectDisk 7.0
ok one site that i know of that you may wanna check out is Tom Coyote basically just register with the site and post your hijackthis log, usually they get to the ones that have the problems first. Tell them everything u tried and stuff like that. If that doesnt help then your best bet would be getting a computer professional to look at it
This a Trick i tired a few weeks bk with a spyware was i did is use the System Restore and set back a few weeks b4 all the problems started out worked i cant 100% say it will work but all gotta do is try also reccomend back up all psd and stuff
There isnt much I can say m8. I think its format time im sorry it has to be said. Next time make sure you are protected well What to use. Firewall - Kaspersky Anti-Hacker Antivirus - Kaspersky Anti-Virus Spyware - Spybot, S-D, Microsoft Antispyware, XoftSpy, Ad-Aware.
I wouldnt say Kaspersky, that's a virus in itself. I would suggest in the future, get all the spyware stuff they said, and: AV- Avast and Nod32 Firewall- Sygate
