i got this virus like 3 days ago in an instant message from a friend.
its in spanish and it reads soemthing about checking out a pictur eof his sister with a link... well i clicked the link and it came to an empty page.
now everytime i start a window with a contact it quickly exes out.. if i click on the contact again it send them the same message that i first received.
i have tried many anti-virus programs and none of them have shown any results.
ALSO i have mcafee with virusscan.. which im now figuring out is pretty crappy.
anybody have any suggestions? This post was last edited by olly_tt91 on Tuesday, October 14, 2008 2:57:25 AM. |

| Knowing the specific virus will help. There are a couple of variants and the solutions are all different. Once you figure that out, the fastest way is to Google the virus and there should be a number of sites that will have a solution. You're correct that McAfee is crappy (as is Norton). Go with something like Kaspersky or NOD32. FYI, don't, DO NOT use your IM client as that's how the virus is spread. ---------------------------------------------- Work is for people who don't know how to surf Gateway 15.4" Laptop, Windows Vista Ultimate/Server 2008, Photoshop CS3, Nikon D200 |
