  2. I suggest you download AVG Anti-Virus, Ad-Aware 2008 and Spybot S&D (they’re free), install them, update them and run them. If any of the above (or any anti-malware, for that matter) doesn’t seem to be able to run properly or get rid of everything it reports finding, try running it again in Safe Mode.

    Also, turn off System Restore to evict any copies of bad stuff that might be lurking there.  

    To get into Safe Mode or Safe Mode with Networking:

    1. Log out and reboot your machine.

    2. When the machine starts the reboot sequence, press the F8 key repeatedly.

    3. Select Safe Mode or Safe Mode with Networking from the resulting menu.

    4. When the login screen comes up, log in as Administrator.  By default, Administrator has no password.

    5. The machine will continue booting, but the Windows desktop will look different.  

    6. When you're finished doing what you need to do, log out and reboot back into normal mode.

    Note that even if the anti-malware programs get rid of the malware, they may not be able to reverse the effects.  Search the Web for possible fixes.

    Update and run everything regularly, not just when you think you already have malware.

    Good luck.


  3. Hello,

    It sounds like you have a bit of a trojan problem.  This can be a very bad thing if you do not get it fixed.

    Trojan infections can be very tricky to remove from your computer, and it can also let in hundreds of other malicious programs.

    Trojans can lead to spyware, malware, and even adware infections.  You should probably get this taken care of now.  

    I had a very serious spyware and trojan infection not to long ago.  It started off with a seemingly innocent pop-up, and quickly plaqued my whole computer.

    I had to evently pay my computer geek friend $100 dollars to finally fix it.  He told me that it was one of the worst cases of spyware and trojan infections he had ever seen.

    Then he told me something that really made me angry.  He said I could have prevented the whole thing if I would have protected myself with a good spyware removal program.

    He then told me that he fixed my computer by getting one of the programs from http://www.honestspywarereview.com .  I don't remember exactly the one it was, but you can check it out for yourself.

  4. There are many programs that can help remove a trojan horse.  Click the following link to a guide that will help you not only find those programs but give you details on how to remove the trojans.  It's very indepth so follow it as closely as possible:
