  1. Well, go to www.download.com and download AVG AntiVirus and Lavasoft Ad-Aware. That should work.

    If that doesn't, Google Online virus scanner and use Trend Micro Housecall. If THAT fails, download KillBox and use that to completely wipe the exe file from the computer.


  2. Virus...temp folder... download something shouldnt have? haha

    If you cant get rid of it.. you could always system repair.. It sets your computer back to another day when it backed itself up.  This could be risky because you could also sometimes lose other things that you have done in that time period.  

    I do it when i get a virus.. i just set it for the last time it backed up before i got it.

    ---Control panel-Performance and Maint-system restore

  3. Use NoAdware. It worked for me with this problem. You can download it at the link below.

  4. Disable System Restore first

    try to manually delete the temp files

    go to run and type %temp% and delete everything.

    try to run the antispyware software again

  5. well try this combo

    Nod32 anti virus + advance windowcare V2 + spybot make sure all of this programs are updated then run them 1 by 1  

  6. try spybot

    or spyware doctor

    or spyware terminator

  7. Did you install webroot spyware swepper in the computer. This problem is associated with webroot spyware. You can consider downloading free version of malwarebyte antimalware from http://www.geeksjunction.com to check your computer for viruses and spyware.

  8. well seriously i have had a virus on my comp not long ago and the only way to completely get rid of it is to reformat ur comp. after that there wont be any traces of the virus from b4. virus programs wont guarentee the virus to b completely removed from ur computer.

  9. Then you must install CLAMWIN

    ClamWin is a Free Antivirus for Microsoft Windows

    that uses the GNU General Public License by the Free Software

    Foundation and is free (as in freedom) software.

    There is a portable version of ClamWin where it can be install into an USB thumb drive.

    You can install in a USB drive as small as 128 MB.

    First use another PC to download Clamwin portable anti-virus

    and install Clamwin portable on a USB thumb drive.
