Restore to a previous date is usually my first option.

I'm running AVG in Safe Mode as I type.
I was planning on going to the restore point I just created Thursday, but couldn't open Control Panel to get to it. I'm not very computer savvy, folks - so if the scan doesn't work - could someone walk me through getting to that restore point in Safe Mode? TIA |

****.
I may be overreacting, but the scan doesn't appear to be going very well. c:\boot\bcd locked file. not tested c:\boot\bcd.log locked file. not tested. c:\documents and settings\ locked file. not tested. c:\pagefile.sys locked file. not tested. Currently scanning program files. |

Download Combofix and run it. It will remove the virus and reset your comp clock and such. Just google combofix, i have had similar experiences with bogus antivirus virus programs that pop up from out of nowhere. I believe the virus also has a key logger with it to track personal info.
Hope this helps. |

Also a regular everyday freeware antivirus program will not remove the virus. I have tried everything and the only thing that seems to work on the bogus antivirus virus is combofix.

Combofix is the only way to go. Might have to download it on another PC and copy it over.
