Spyware...

forgot to post but ...yeah by know u know whos helpin ya out lol..hope this goes good

 

Boot in safe mode by pressing F8 most way... Do a virus scan there an both ad-aware and hijack this. I guess the anti virus is saying its still infected? If so, copy the name and search on it for google on a fix.

 

Reformmate, install zone alarm + AVG

nothing can get through unless your stupid enough to open a virus

 

That's not true, but mostly a virus will just destroy so much things, it's not worth fixing it or it will just remove the virus and you'll still have problems which the virus has caused, like it doesn't want to load OS software.

Sometimes you don't know even if a file contains a virus, there are so many different ways to hide a virus in a application, image or mp3...

 

AVG Anti-Spyware should do the trick

Download Ad-Aware, they will most likely find all your spyware.

 

If you read his post, you would know that hes using "Spybot and Ad-Aware". :tongue:

 

uhh im pretty sure its fixed so you guys can stop posting cause i helped him and he said it stopped having the symptoms

 

Just check the damn registry!

 

Where in the registery would be spyware? lol

and PHOENiX GFX, spyware does not get removed by removing your cookies

 

Restart the computer in safe mode with networking, update spybot and adaware. And do seperate scans for both. Just do quick scans. After that, delete anything it finds, then go to start>run>msconfig, then disable any programs you aren't really using or looks suspicious. Thats what I did when I had spyware.

 

Alright, here is what I do for my system clean-up, my comp stays clean, really clean... so here:

Programs you need:

Ad-Aware SE -----
Error Killer
Tune-Up Utilities 2006
Your Anti-Virus Software(Make sure it isn't Norton)
Registry Mechanic
Diskeeper

What to do:

1. Update Error Killer, Ad-Aware, Your Virus Soft, Tune-Up Utilities, and Registry Mechanic to their latest definition.

2. Do a full scan with Ad-Aware, delete and quarantine, the spyware that pops up in the results.

3. Do a full scan with Registry Mechanic and Repair all registry problems.

4. Do a full virus-scan, repair all problems that pop up in results.

5. Do a full scan with Error Killer and repair all problems.

6. Defrag your HDD with Diskeeper and pad the HDD.

7. Lastly, run 1-Click Maintenance with Tune Utilities.

Also, get all the updates from WIndows Updates.

 

I'm really not good with handleing viruses but try to go into your C drive and search for it by its name then delete it
