grease monkey Posted June 8, 2006 Report Share Posted June 8, 2006 Apperantly my computer thinks its got some kind of virus, my home page constantly goes to some anti-virus programs website, i'm getting 10 kinds of different popups. I've downloaded ad-aware and ran it several times, as well as running pest patrol several, norton antivirus has not detected anything, albite my subscription ran out probally like 6-8 months ago.... does anyone know of any free anti-virus software I can download and hopefully get rid of the damn thing, or do I just need to wipe the slate clean and start over??? Thanks in advance.... Rick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JaSSon Posted June 8, 2006 Report Share Posted June 8, 2006 http://housecall65.trendmicro.com/ That is what I use. Free, and there is nothing to download. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casper Posted June 8, 2006 Report Share Posted June 8, 2006 no virus... just spyware... you look at too much porn download microsoft antispyware, spybot, and hijackthis those three with adaware will take care of you... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iwishiwascool Posted June 8, 2006 Report Share Posted June 8, 2006 you have spysheriff. It is a nasty one. I actually got it from the raceclub main page a month or so ago. I bet if you press Ctrl+alt+del it will say "this function has been disabled by your administrator". Search SpySheriff on google and be prepared to start downloading a lot of programs: KillBox, HijackThis, CleanUp, etc. And hurry up, it is a nasty trojan that can rob serious info.
