My basic virus/spyware routine.....
Unplug network connection.
Remove, restart, then reinstall AVG, adaware and spybot.
Use your faithful laptop to locate updates for the above, and the remarkably funny sounding SuperAntiSpyware, Hijackthis and McAfee Stinger [standalone virus scanner]. All should be free and easy to find on google. Transfer over and install with a pendrive.
Restart in safemode [tap f8 when the manufacterers splash screen displays on reboot]. Scan with AVG, Stinger, AdAware, SB, SAS.
Reboot to normal windows.
Test to see if this has solved the problem.
If not, Hijackthis is fairly useful also, but can have some negative results. Run Hijack this, select scan and save logfile, save it to the pendrive. Use laptop to analyse logfile with hijackthis.de . This will suggest some potential nasty registry entries which can be removed with HJT. Now, if you remove something you shouldn't with HJT, you can cause some fairly catastrophic problems. If there's something you're unsure about, send me a PM.  |
