Computer is going Crazy!

Question

Hello. I recently reformatted my PC and i forgot to install a anti virus. I have now installed a anti virus "AVG 8.0 Free edition" Before i installed it i downloaded a serial code which had a virus. Now my computer is crazy! Explorer.exe wont load, Cant open Add or Remove programs, Sercurity Center, Computer cant shut down when i press Start shutdown it restarts instead. I get lots of pop ups.Done a full system scan but nothing. Cant do a system restore. My computer is a "Mesh Matrix Fireblade CSX" Could anyone help me please? If you need more information just post here.

Answer 1

Not necessarily so that you need to reformat.  What does it say on the pop ups?  Look through the Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware Dectections List and match the one you have.  Scroll down for the rogue part.

Download and update Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and it's free to use.  This would be a useful addition for your computer if you decide to keep it.

Answer 3

You may have to reinstall again as you're meant to install AV software _before_ you get infected (that is proper AV software, not a free scanner like AVG), but try here try here:

Answer 4

Re-format your PC. And then, if you want to know any code .. just take from any others computer who are using good anti-virus. Or take the code from internet cafe...

Good Luck...

Answer 5

start up task manager and terminate any suspicious processes. start up msconfig (xp: start run, msconfig : vista start, search msconfig) and stop any suspicious items from starting (in the start-up tab) then get avast or get a torrent for a better anti virus (i recommend eset). i got the exact same virus a few days ago by downloading a key-gen and stopped it in it's tracks using this method (i already had eset though). hope this helps, benjie.

(the easiest way would be to do a reformat and install of windows and that would remove all traces of the virus.)

Answer 6

Answer 7

Reformatting your PC is the easiest way out.......in fact in your case i think its the only permanent way out. However if you have a bootable CD of Linux or something, you could give it a try...

Answer 8

Reformatting would be the easiest option.  I however don't like to do that because I loose everything.  I would recommend deleting your Temp folder which can be found in My Computer> Local Disk C> WINDOWS>Temp.  A lot of times this is where viruses are found.  If you're willing to spend the money around $40 I would recommend gettting Norton Antivirus.  I would install that and do a full system scan this should find the rest of your problems.  If you can't run a full scan in normal mode try running it in safe mode by pushing F8 while your computer starts up.  Hope this helps!
