Trojan Virus - Is Computer Cleaned After Virus Infection?
Aug 14, 2008I had a trojan Virus in the computer. I think that I got rid of it, but I am not sure could anyone that can read a log please tell me if there is anything else left in the computer. The computer now doesn't stay on-line it disconnects itself. I called the company that provides me with my internet service, and they said that I need a filter for the phone line. The person told me that, that will take care of the problem of the internet disconnecting. I think that it could be the virus I had in the computer. I wasn't able to get on-line for at least a week, I had gone and checked the disk for errors and finally the anti-virus program was able to find the virus's.

Jan 22, 2009I have a Dell desktop computer with Windows XP. Everything had been working fine, up until 2 days ago. On Tuesday, I turned on my computer like usual and I noticed that my monitor was not normal. I could not see anything on my desktop. It was black. And also, the power button was blinking green every 3 seconds and would not stop, until I actually removed the plug from the surge protector. Yesterday the same thing happened when I turned on my computer, but today, when I turned it on, I could see my desktop and the power button was normal green and not blinking. I was happy, until I moved the mouse and the cursor was frozen. Now, it seems like my desktop monitor is fine, but my mouse isn't normal? I unplugged the mouse from the tower and plugged it back in, cleaned out the mouse, and it's still frozen.

May 3, 2006I think my computer may have some kind of virus. None of my antivirus and spyware programs are picking it up. My computer just keeps on restarting. It seems that it restarts when too many programs are running and when I am away from the computer for more then half an hour. I never noticed it automatically restarting until about two days ago. Everytime I leave the computer and come back, it has been restarted. How do I fix this?

Jan 7, 2009I recently acquired a virus even though my McAfee is on and updated daily along with my spyware and a firewall. I tried to remove the virus from safe mode to no avail. I am running Windows XP on a Dell and when I rebooted my system a log in screen appeared. Unfortunately I do not remember my password for this computer as I haven't had to use it in 5 or so years. My problem now is how can I bypass the password if possible and how do I restore my system to an earlier date if I cannot get past the password? I know that this can be done by using the F keys but I do not remember exactly how it works.

Jan 31, 2005I restarted my computer in safe mode to see if it would get a program to work. Not only did it not work, it seems to have severely crippled my system.The first thing I noticed (after restoring to normal boot mode) was that my GUI was very simplified not what it usually is for Windows XP. A simple example is that the minimize maximize close buttons look like the Windows 98 version rather than Windows XP. Also, more advertisements were popping up than I was used to which quickly led me to discover that my Norton Personal Firewall and System Works were disabled. When I tried to open them manually, I was greeted instead with an error message which instructed me to reinstall Norton. Though I knew it wouldn't help, I tried to uninstall Norton System Works but the uninstall program didn't execute properly. I then used Symantec's website instructions for uninstalling Norton manually. When I tried to reinstall it, another error message popped up and I have since been unable to install it.Various system utilites are disabled. Device manager displays no devices. None. I attempted to use system restore to restore it to an earlier date. It instructed me to click on a date in bold but the only date in bold was from two minutes after I had destroyed my computer. I restored to that point just for the heck of it with predictable (no) results. Also, my computer doesn't detect a sound card so I can't even listen to music while I fix my computer. I'm still not sure of the full extent of the problem.The internet is working decently (how else would I be posting this?) but certain sites aren't working. The obvious notable one is the Windows Update site. Also, when I tried to update HijackThis to post my log (I'll post it on request) I got the now familiar, "Cannot connect to server," error. Even programs like AIM don't connect properly and I'm currently using an old version-- not even the newest one-- of AIM Express to chat.

E-machines Computer Have Virus
Oct 16, 2006My mom brought me her e-machines computer today with the complaint that Windows won't load.I think it might have a virus.So I hook it up and turn it on and am greeted with the loading screen before it brings up a windows error screen prompt that looks like a DOS screen.It says how there might have been a power failure or a virus or God knows what, but it gives you three options for proceeding.1) Safe Mode.2) Start with the last known good configuration.3) Start Windows Normally.I tried starting with all three options and it starts to do each one and then restarts and takes me right back to the loading screen before presenting me with the same DOS-looking screen again and the same endless three options.

Dec 28, 2005There is an unwanted background on my desktop.It is a warning that my computer might be infected with a virus and I suspect that the virus or pop up program actually switched to this file from my previous background, which I would like to restore.I have tried but when I go into Display and Desktop and Background, I can not choose any of the selections. This is a vexing problem, the security warning currently set as the background is ugly.

Jun 18, 2008I have recently downloaded a free program and was going to install it. I ran it, and then my antivirus blocked it because it contained a virus. I have been looking for the program for a very long time, and I was angry that it didn't work. So I allowed the infected program and then the it disappeared. The icon disappeared. I knew I shouldn't have done it, but nothing bad happened to me for about a day. Then, my laptop was slower than normal, internet connection was slow (I'm right next to the router too), and I was getting pop-ups. I tried to do System Restore, but all my restore points were gone! I couldn't even switch months! Also, Automatic Updates was telling me that it was off, but when I checked my settings were the same when I first set them.

Restoring Computer After Virus Attack?
Aug 17, 2010My PC was recently infected with a virus (Antivirus GT) and although I'm sure I've cleared it by running i0Bit 360 and Malwarebytes anti malware, none of the desktop icons or the task bar appear on start up.I can still access programs through the task manager (File, new task, run)and all my files are still present but obviously, I would like to return my computer to it's former working state. I do not have all the system recovery disks and could not find system restore or safe mode on the computer so I'm hoping there is a way of doing this without the use of CD's.
