Me too, man. Thanks.

Mrs. OTW58 had some work to do from home today, and before she started, this happened - so she had to drive downtown to the office to get it done.

She works from home a lot, so I need to get this thing up and running ASAP.

You need to make her happy because obviously she is looking at porn sites with viruses on them.

Click Start, point to All Programs, point to Accessories, point to System Tools, and then click System Restore. System Restore starts.
On the Welcome to System Restore page, click Restore my computer to an earlier time (if it is not already selected), and then click Next.
On the Select a Restore Point page, click the most recent system restore point in the On this list, click a restore point list, and then click Next.

Note A System Restore message may appear that lists configuration changes that System Restore will make. Click OK.
On the Confirm Restore Point Selection page, click Next. System Restore restores the previous Windows XP configuration, and then restarts the computer.
Log on to the computer as Administrator. The System Restore Restoration Complete page is displayed.
Click OK.

After you do that then go and download Temp File Cleaner at http://www.geekstogo.com/forum/TFC-T...r-file187.html

Then run whatever AV scanner you have along with Malwarebytes at http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=5756

Use the system restore to go back a few days to let's say, atleast Friday. The TFC will remove all places the virus/spyware would hide. Malware bytes will get rid of any remnants that the first two didn't get. I'd also recommend the combofix too but alot of spyware virus's do something to not allow it to run. You can still run it at any point after the System Restore.

The Idea behind using multiple applications and utlities is to get things off the system that may have been missed by the others.

You can stop the scan by canceling it, i believe it says cancel scan. Or you can ride it out remove a virus that it caught. Then download the program.

No cancel scan option. I figure I can just click the "Close" X and cancel it that way.

At this point, I've already wasted over a ****ing hour on this scan, I might as well see it through and then reboot - unless you guys think that's pointless.

OTW,

I had that very nasty little **** of a virus. I went over every line of code for 8 hours. And in the end I kicked that POS off my computer.

Then just for fun I reformatted and reloaded. Should have done that first. Took less time.

But my six year old Toshiba laptop is running like a dream. And if it happens again, I'll reformat again.

I'm not sure how comfortable I'd be reformatting and reloading. I've backed up all my files, but let's just say that I'd lose a lot of software. And it would take forever to re-install the "other" programs.

I'll absolutely do it if I have to, however.

I didn't have anything real important on it to begin with. But now that I've done it, I'd do it again in a heartbeat.

It's that simple.

You need to remove the worm or it could result in hardware failure down the road.

I was gone all day yesterday, so I went to check the mail hoping that the W7 disk had arrived.

No such luck.
