I'v recently had a lot of virus, spam, adware problems with my pc. After a vain attempt to clean it up I reinstalled the OS. Now whenever I try to access my old desctop/my documents folder I get an 'access is denied' error. It is an NTFS file system.
View 2 RepliesI ran a scan with AVG and during the scan it found "Adware.BiSpy". That sound ominous. It recommended I "Ignore Once". I decided to delete it instead.
But when I go to delete, A grey box pops up that says:
" WARNING: C:WINDOWSsystem32C55bLs.dll/bi.dll cannot be removed because it is embedded in the archive C:WINDOWSsystem32C55bLs.dll. Do you want to remove the whole archive?"
I have a need for transfering file sizes that exceed most ISP limitations.
These transfers would be between 4-5 individuals to start. I am considering
the FTP protocol. Can anyone recommend good host sites (I am looking at GoDaddy.com and a couple of others) plus what is a good program to prepare and send/receive these files? Another problems is the amount of spam/virus filters now being put in place almost everywhere. Our tranfers will xontain some .exe files and that causes most of these filters to declare them a virus or at least suspicious.
How is it that i run Ad-Adware and it find a virus, i clean it, and it comes
back the next time i use my PC. Has it missed something?
I download the full version of sp2 here http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en and I will burn this one file on a cd so:Can I just double click on this one file and it will install without being on the internet?Will this one file install everything I need to update my xp pro to sp2?I did all the ad-ware and virus scan and defrag, so I hope this one file works

View 4 Replies View RelatedI'll try to remember, to the best of my ability, the sequence of events...Suffice it to say that I downloaded and tried to install something I shouldn't have. I Immediately tried to get out of the errors from AVG (free version) and stop the install. All seems good, then IE keeps opening to bogus ad sites. I realize I've got something. AVG and AdAware both fail in removing this Win32Trojan.tdss (I think AVG gave me this description). AVG tells me to reboot to remove it properly. Reboot throws me into "can't verify this installation of Windows". Boot in safe mode work, then I get the same error on reboot...even in safe mode.
I don't have the original Windows CD (separated from husband and software at the same time; cannot find any software now), but it's a Dell and it came with Windows XP Home (product key on box), but I installed XP Pro instead. Don't know what product key was used or how to get it.....

When I launch Internet Explorer 8 on my XP Pro machine, some crap starts loading, I see on the bottom of IE various sites (also clicking noise gives that away. The funny thing is, nothing pops up, does not re-direct.. And this is weird but all the sudden some gibberish sounds start playing... Sounds like multiple audio into one. I am in IT business, so I tried finding the source in Task manager, fully scanned for worms/trojans, you name it, and nothing was found!!This issue also locks up my IE, and I need to kill it... What the hell is it?? How do you troubleshoot something that only comes out from PC speakers??

Is there a way to 'uninstall' this stuff? I already have a DSL modem firewall and a Yahoo mail that stops spam, so don't want an added virus protector.

C:WindowsSystem32Autoexec.NT. The system file is not suitable for running
MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows applications. Choose 'Close' to terminate the application.
I had some malware or adware that I got rid of , I think. In the process, I may have made a mess of things and now I have this blue screen appearing regularly with the message: "page_fault_in_nonpaged_ area " along with some instructions to disable bios memory options such as caching and shadowing and it often reloads. There are also some 0x00000050 type numbers that change each time.I also upgraded to service pack 3 with no change.I can usually hit function 8 and I am back in business unless I let the machine sit idle when the blue screen reappears. I reinstalled XP with no different results.

View 6 Replies View RelatedRestored entire pc as a result of spyware and adware. It's quick and clean, and I've never had a problem doing it before. I restored to Win98SE, then upgraded to XP Home, then downloaded Service Pack 2. Everything went smoothly. Then, tried to add Fax Service. First of all, it tells me to load the XP cd; then it says it can't find a .dll file it needs; continue without it? Yes. The job completes, but then I discover that IE and OE have disappeared. Back to "add windows components". Check IE and OE. Run the job and it ends "successfully". Check Fax, and it's gone, but IE and OE are back (with all the settings I had done after SP2). Does anyone have any idea what's going on here?
