Record Number Of Viruses, Trojans Etc. On A PC?
Apr 6, 2006
I will like to know from the Cnet uses that use windows xp sp2 to tell me how many viruses that they has on their pc. My record number is 105 viruses when doing a full system scan with the full paid version and updated version of Norton anti-virus 2004! I was surprised that i had that many viruses when i had been running norton for 3 or 4 months running full system scans once a week and a quick scan once everyday. I later then uninstalled norton becuase my computer was going too slow and installed avast antivirus. The first scan that i ran with avast as soon as i installed it found another 24 viruses. That is a total of 129 viruses.

My computer is seriously infected with a large number of trojans, and other nasties. But i dont know where to start on how to get rid of them. When i run any long term virus detection program, it shuts down after a set amount of time. My cpu usage is almost always 100 percent, causing everything to run insanely slow, and also causing it to crash and restart. Need soome help on this one.

The Trojan.Downloader.zlob.abt Trojan.Fake.alert.eb... Are both on my sys. but according to Bit Defender, "they're causing no harm to my sys." I presume that means they are quaranteed. I've run SpySweeper and a couple others and have been unable to turn either one up. Nor can I locate them in Google. My questions are, how can I get them off my sys.

My daughter has a Dell XPS M1210 laptop running Windows XP Media Center Edition. She got fooled by PSGuard and thought she was downloading antispyware software after a warning came on her screen. She ended up with the TrojanDownloder.xs and the SmitFraud problem. With a lot of assistance from techs on this site (thank you, thank you I was able to fix all the problems. At least that is what I thought.
Recently she tried to burn a audio CD. The CD drive reads CD's and DVD's but won't allow her to record. The drive had worked in the past. Is there a chance there is still a registry problem here that is preventing the drive from recording? She has reloaded the software from Dell. She uses Itunes, Windows Media Center, Nero, which in the past has allowed her to record

Anyone know if there is a DVR that I can buy without the monthly subscription fee and set up charges to record TV shows onto the harddrive?I heard that only a few manufacturers were making such devices, but I haven't been able to find which ones.

My PC is lousy with viruses etc. I scanned with HijackThis, but I don't understand the results. It does not automatically fix problem files, I must choose what to remove. I'm positive that I'm going to remove something vital.

my computer seems to be hacked by someone, I don't know who. This morning, I turned on the computer and saw that two fake virus protections "VirusResponse Lab 2009" and "Windows Antivirus 2008" have been invading my desktop. I keep exiting them all out, but they just keep coming back. There were approximately 50 Trojans, indeed, now I have used both XoftSpySE to delete WAV 2008 and used Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware to delete VirusResponse Lab 2008 (I THINK). Next thing: After they have not been popping up anymore (hopefully), on the bottom right corner where the time shows, it says "VIRUS ALERT!" I go to Start and notice I cannot access My Documents, Control Panel, Recent Documents, and "All Programs." They are gone, except some programs listed in the front and Shut Down only. I also see that when I open "My Computer", there is no "C" Drive showing. I can't access that drive even though I'm using it. Now, there is a window from "Windows Security Alert" popping up telling me to "Enable Protection", the option with "Keep Blocking" and "Unblock". I don't know if I should choose "Enable Protection" because IE keeps opening and it's making my computer slow.

My little paper notebook of passwords is falling apart.I want to save my passwords on my PC.Saving them in Norton Password Manager does not allow me to see what they are.
I want to save them as graphic objects that can be displayed.
What is the kind or type of software that causes a password to be displayed in a graphically complex format that is not readable by software but is readable by a human

i recently installed a mic on my laptop (Toughbook CF-29) and I can hear myself/sounds from the mic through the speaker on my laptop, but xp sound recorder and/or Audacity won't record the sounds going through the mic/speakers. I have tried messing about with advanced audio properties, but can't figure this out.

my PC has 2 disks it was setup with a boot manager on disk1 disk1 has linux. disk2 is my Win XP disk. my question is can I safely write a boot block on disk2 and not loose data like the XP CD warns you about? I'm not using Linux on disk1 anymore, but I need the boot manager to boot XP on disk2. so the question is how safe is it to use the XP CD and fix/create a boot record on disk2? Are there any issues? I really don't want to restore because of the software is already working..

I found around 260 Trojans, and after disinfecting, Whenever I connect to the net, it only lasts for two minutes. Then I have to reboot to connect again. and continued again. So I decided to reformat my PC, and did so. Now I'm stuck with 2 OSes, one in my C drive, and one in My D drive.

My computer has been catching a lot of viruses, mosty trojans, and I just got McAfee re-subribed but everytime I start my computer it gets to just before the logon screen and an error occurs. It says "The Instruction at "0x100096b0" referenced memory at 0x01568000". The memory could not be read." It gives me two choices either to press ok or cancel. Either way the computer screen turns black and a minute later it appears at another black screen telling me that something failed and to shut down the computer. I have tried opening up in safe mode and running McAfee, AVG, Spyware Doctor, and Registry Mechanic.

The guy who carries out any repairs or adds/replaces any hardware on my system told me about a great new security program he had found titled Emsisoft Anti-Malware. I downloaded this yesterday and noticed a feature called Hijack Free which I thought was probably similar to the old Hijack This, anyway I did a scan then clicked on a button for an online analysis which reported that I had 35 Trojans.

Computer is messed up. She has no idea what happened and called me over to take a look at it. So i went over and I started the computer and it goes to the first start screen where it says this at the bottom "Press [TAB] to show post screen; Press [ALT] + [F2] to enter AWDFlash Utility" Then it pauses there like it is actually going to fully start up but then the computer restarts and it goes through that all over again. I put in their Windows XP CD and ran the recovery program and it came up saying that it started and then it says type EXIT to exit the recovery utility. She says that when it first started doing this something came up saying "Deleting Orphan Record Files" then it listed a whole bunch of files and said "Deleted" beside it.. the list was kinda like what you get when you run a virus scan and it list all the files.. but it listed approx. 5,000,000 files. I find that a little hard to belive but she claims it happened. Is there away to fix this and get her back up and going or will I have to install a NEW/FRESH copy of Xp and like reformat the HD.

I purchased new blank Sony 700 MB CD RW's for a little more capacity. Windows & my Nero 8 both eventually refuse to record to the discs because they are recognizing them as "illegal discs". This error message must result from the size of the disc as I have no problems with 650 MB discs. I was able to record to one of the discs with another computer.This second computer is 64 bit XP VS my 32 bit. The burners are identical, and the Nero 7 used is nearly identical.I then erased the disc (with Nero 7) and tried it in the problem computer same issue.
