I got the nasty Vista AntiMalware virus the other day. It was recommended that I do a System Restore. That helped the situation mostly. Then last night in Dearic, about 10 minutes into the building phase, I BSoD'd (first time in ages on my desktop). I selected the "Last Good Configuration" option. What do you know? Virus came back. I restarted Windows in Safe Mode, saved my files 'n stuff, etc. Reinstalled Vista. What else do you know? Drivers are being a pain to install now. Gah!

That's okay. At least I have my lappy. Updating Galaxies as we speak.

Porn fries your brain! Did we learn are lesson now? Yap!

I think I can up you fix that. Is it the thing that says you need to scan your Computer, that you have a virus and stuff but it's actually malware? Or am I totally wrong?

Use ComboFix first: http://combofix.org/

Then use Malwarebytes: http://download.cnet.com/Malwarebytes-A ... ?tag=mncol

We use that combination all of the time at work and it usually does the job 95% of the time. You may have to run Malwarebytes a couple of times though.

After you get everything fixed, go and download Microsoft Security Essentials. It's free and is better than everything you will shell out money for.

Not sure... Money is tight and there is a severe lack of time in my daily schedule...

The wife and I are trying to see which home improvement project we can blow $8,000 on the fastest... Aiming for a little roof work, windows, and siding...
