OMG what can i do!!  |
|
hi there
i have a huge problem right now on my home computer i am in safe mode trying to get rid of the virus as it's attacked my root system files & all. i installed avg & it hasn't even picked up anything/ any of the other's as of yet but hoping that A2 & avast & avg forums can help me. my A2 & avast & avg all picked up 1 called Puppies.dir.dat & now when i boot-up into the computer i get the blue screen & have to reboot & go into my comp thru the safe mode to do any-thing. i was starting to wonder weather the problem was with the ad saying "you are number 999,999..."/ the free lotto one. sometimes when I've answered a discussion i get a message asking if i want to navigate away from the page after i hit the post comment & get into the ad tags, after i have it then when i've clicked yip the page closes & a site I've never even asked to open suddenly opens up like it's on auto-pilot/ something. It's not always on mylot that this happens. the other popup seems to be the 1 where it says "message alert: you have 1 message waiting for you", another i have seen since having problems is a yellow background with the words "Winner - if flashing you've been selected & Claim Your Prize!
the other was that i have started to have problems since i opened the 2 tags up the top called "tasks & the other is blogs" also. latas lamb101 xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

1. BarBaraPrz (3429) | 7 months ago | I can't help you resolve your problems (I'm one of those smug Mac users), just wanted to remind you not to click on strange messages... Good luck in getting things back to normal.

kimbers867 (1201) | 7 months ago | We have decided that once our computers die, we are switching to Mac's. I used Mac's back in the late 80's/early 90's and loved them!!!!

2. suspenseful (17124)  | 7 months ago | That is why I do not use AVg, it does not do a good job of removing viruses or detecting trojans (which I think is what you got.) I use Avira Antivir and it does a good job.and you could try that, but it seems that it might be too late. Oh I get those fake run a virus screen and get away from the page, and usually in the former the only thing you can do is to boot down your machine and start it up again. What I would suggest is to try Avira Antivir http://www.free-av.com/,, get rid of your old anti viruses to avoid conflict and see if it works. In the meantime, put what you need on separate cds, dvds, or what have you, just in case, you may need to format your computer. Sometimes that might be the only thing left.

4. Asylum (3387) | 7 months ago | This could be any of a myriad of items known as Malware or Adware, which are not really covered by Anti virus programs. You could try some of the specially designed software, such as Adaware etcetera, but they are really intended to defend against such things rather than remove them. One option would be to run System Restore to turn your computer back to before the problem arose, providing that it has not been disabled. As a last resort you could always format the drive and re-install Windows.

| 5. wiljanyum112004 (45) | 7 months ago | It's really hard to get rid of such viruses or malwares or etc. Just be careful in those prompt boxes appearing in your screen, or those warnings about a script.. If you really wanted to surf the internet with confidence, I think you can try to use a software the freezes your hard disk. I recommend you to use "defreeze" especially when your an internet surfer. Even though you activated some viruses in your computer, you just have to reboot your system.

7. beautyqueen26 (9134) | 7 months ago | You might try the free spyware cleaner from Spyware doctor.
They saved my last computer from the Virtumonde virus that spawns thousands of pop ups per hour.
http://linkbee.com/spywaredoctor
Just download and install and run a full scan.
Be sure to disconnect from the Internet before doing that or else the virus will only contact the Internet for a new batch of viruses.
Also, scan while offline.
Unplug completely from the Internet.

8. candy2306 (471) | 7 months ago | Oh, that's so sad lamb101! I'm sure that you must be very tensed handling this issue. Especially when you find your files are missing. Blue screen, tell me about it! I've experienced that myself. Hope you get to cleanse all the virus out of your computer. Good Luck.

9. glords (1434) | 7 months ago | I wish I had some advice for you, my husband insisted that I get a MAC to prevent such virus problems. Every time my mac has an issue, I just take it into the apple store and they fix it for free. I hate it when the computer is in the shop. I feel so disconnected from the world. I hope your computer gets back to normal asap.

Take your HD out and back up the important files. then you re format everything.
