I caught a virus last night while umm, doing research. I clicked on a link and immediately a bunch of icons started loading on my desktop and the computer had a mind of it's own. I ran a deep scan virus program and it got rid of about six trojan virus but couldn't delete four more that seem to be messing up Windows Explorer. I'm using another computer to type this now.
My question, if I use windows restore feature to go back to an earlier point will this get rid of the virus? I'm figuring probably not, but it's worth asking the question. Thanks. |

go to f-prot. they ahve a great anti virus program, you candownload for free and it will boot you up and scan before it loads up...then eliminate it.
Run a better suite of protection software.. Norton Suite acutally is pretty good, the firewall is ok, the anti spam is less than adequete, but i have another pop-up stopper running.. Rich |
