Question:

I think I have a virus that my computer keeps shutting down how do I remove?

by | earlier

Restore doesn't work. It doesn't give me any alternate dates except for the present day I'm on the computer. I can't get to the internet because the computer doesn't stay on long enough for me to get that far.

If you have Vista, like i do, sometimes what i find is that the updates are not properly installed, or they are just not good with my system. So what i do when i have the exact same problem (mine restarts like ever 5-8min) is do a system restore. Start...Accessories...system tools.

Good luck

Run a virus and spyware scan. If that does not correct the problem, try a system restore to a date your computer was running properly. If all else fails, you may have to re-instll your Windows operating system. You can also try a linux system. Liniux is free and comes with a ton of apps.

Good Luck,

Get some antivirus software so you can detect wether you have a virus/trojan/spyware/malware/etc.

A good one is AVG(http://free.avg.com).

Shutting down could also due to over heating so i would look into that if the antivirus doesnt remove anything.
