Thread: got a trojan horse HELP!

When I finally got my internet back I had to pay someone $60.00 to totally wipe out everything on my computer because of a virus. He had to download Windows with the cd's and everything. I still dont have good protection but I run Spybot Search, Ad-Aware and AVG Free everyday.

i had a recent problem like yours the it started with a c you will prob have to run the scan a few times if it cant get rid of the virus/trojan just type in the name in a yahoo search engine and you should find a webpage very easily that tells you how to remove it

Looks like it's just for Windows XP but I'm no computer genius. Thanks anyway. Gee I guess it's time for me to go out and buy something. I get baffled with things like this.

Wow I was shocked to see that someone posted a coupon for cereal and it was some kind of virus. Don't know if it's true or not but I'm not printing it out.
