My Virus scanner is acting up.
« on: August 27, 2006, 09:51:19 am »
Hmmm...it all started when i was going to a game web sites and i downloaded a game but after that my virus scanner got acting up and when i scanned the game there was a virus so i deleted the file and perm deleted it from the recycle ben and then when i went back to the wbe site 2 min later when i didnt download anything my virus scanner went up and it was CRAZY!I couldnt "x" out of it or should i say cancel but i couldnt the cancel was a faded color and that meen i couldnt do it.everytime i clicked ok another virus got picked up it was a trojan.exe something like that and i kept clicking and clicking and the same trjon keeps coming but the places they were affecting was different so they were multiplying and i didnt know what to do and the scanner is still on my screen right now.I couldnt heal it cuz it saying it was in healable so i thought it was critical so i kept worrying can someone help me on this?

Okay, don't go to that site.
I know cracks.am tries to send you viruses, so don't go to those sorts of sites.

Reboot pc to clear it of anything. When it starts up turn off any unneeded programs (msn, winamp, firefox, IE etc.)
Run the anti-virus system and check. Once its tried to clear everything get a second anti virus system (30 day trial should be fine) and run that as well. Once that is done get XofstSpy and check for spyware. Once that is done get CCleaner and clean your pc of junk and registry issues.

Get AVG free from here:

Get Nod32 from here:

lol, the first thing a trogen attacks is your anti-virus.... and it usually wins. Next it will shut down IE. Then its hopeless. I have never seen a single computer recover from an attack after the first signs showed up.
