I believe one of my computers is infected with a virus. I have virus removal software (malwarebytes), however when I try to open the .exe file nothing happens.It seems that my computer can no longer open .exe files and thats a serious problem for me in getting rid of the malware on my machine.
So it seems that I have 2 problems now.
Problem #1. My computer cannot open any .exe files.
Problem #2. My computer is infected with some type of malware

View 6 Replies View RelatedA friend of mine has been having malware problems, and I want to shut down system restore and run Ewido in safe mode. My question is, when I shut down system restore, and then turn it back on when I'm done, does it kill all restore points? Will that be a problem? Can't I just create a new one if needed? And last, won't new ones be created automatically over time? I've never done this,so I would like to be sure before I do.I probably need to stay away from this before I make a bad situation worse. She does have Avast, Ewido, Spybot,CCleaner,and Spyware Blaster. The problem is, she doesn't update or run them.I updated everything she had and ran them and everything is much better, but still a little bit slow. I thought maybe running Ewido in safe mode might get some that might be hiding in system restore. Would like to know if this is safe to do Thanks......Maggie

View 1 Replies View RelatedThis is a new problem to me. I'm familiar with XP's search not finding files that actually exist (particularly when searching for files containing the specification) but this time it's finding files that, as far as I can see, don't exist. And it's doing it when searching for a file specification. Yes, I have view hidden files turned on.The only clue I have is that the files that do exist show the full path, e.g. C:LnDevetc while the files that don't exist show the path as etc. Search In is set to LnDev. Since I'm sending the results to a third party simply ignoring the bogus files isn't an option. So far the only 'solution' I've found is to set up a Win2K machine & conduct the search on it. Win2K shows the correct results, WinXP doesn't (verified on 2 machines)

View 6 Replies View RelatedDue to a very successful attack I need to move my Outlook Express files to another Computer. Unfortunately, my search ability has been decimated on the originating computer by the attack.
1. How do I find the E-mails in Windows Explorer [they are present in Outlook Express but I can not find then in windows Explorer]?
2. How do I move them to the other computer [I can still burn CD�s and DVD�s]?
3. The receiving computer uses Windows XP Home and Outlook [not Express] Do I need to do anything additional or differently?
The problems started when my wife received an E-mail from her college [not really but that was what the e-mail�s address indicated] It was opened and; look out. It eliminated or disabled: Internet Access, Norton System Works [including virus protection] and Internet Security, and XP�s Restore, Search and Help features. It also locked all of Norton from being reinstalled [eventually I was able to reinstall Norton including virus Protection, and Internet service]; However, I still have been unable to reinstall the Help and Restore features. In addition to the above Does anyone know how to get the computer back to normal without a total re-install of XP? BTW Do not open any emails that are warning you of Policy Violations, E-Mail Service termination and so on as my wife and I found out. The first ones came from my wife�s university now they are coming from Verizon my ISP.
