				Any one ever get this cock-sucker of a virus? I've been fighting this thing for over a week. So far the best results have been unplugging the network connection and doing deep scans with Hitman Pro Ad-Aware Spybot Spyware Dr. Enterprise Nortons ESET NOD32 The problem I'm having is that the HD activity goes berzerk at boot, progressively slowing the system till it crashes about 15 minutes later. So as you can surmize, I'm having to do these deep scans in small chunks. Frustrating ... Any one have any other ideas? |

				im not sure what you want to save on your hard drive, but my dell has a program hardwired to return the computer back to how it was sent from dell. what disturbs me is that when i call dell they transfer me to some indian speaking country and want $200 to fix my computer, i said no and looked through my dell manual for a bit and figured out all i had to do was press ctrl and F11 when the blue bar goes across the screen at start up. then it opens the said program and it's self explanatory from there. and after i did it, my machine ran like a 2 stike convict This post has been edited by DrivinSidewayz: Jan 5 2010, 06:41 PM |
