Dr. Apex Posted September 21, 2008 Report Share Posted September 21, 2008 I'm having a virus issue all of a sudden. Recently I did some major cleanup on my computer and got a new virus scan. So far it seems to be working but this morning all of a sudden every time I open Internet Explorer or a new tab a Threat Warning comes up. Here's what I get: "File name: C:\\WINDOWS\system32\829275\829275.dll "Threat name: Trojan horse Downloader.Zlob.ACMS" Detected on open. My oprions are to "Heal", "Move to Vault", and "Ignore". Heal and Vault options aren't doing anything and Ignore obviously won't help. Any suggestions?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rally Pat Posted September 21, 2008 Report Share Posted September 21, 2008 Navigate to the file and delete it by hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Apex Posted September 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2008 Using "AVG". Tried deleting manually, it looks like it does delete it but it is still in the folder. AVG keeps popping up but can't seem to do anything about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Apex Posted September 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2008 Well I ended up having to do a total system restore after my computer crashed yesterday and now I have some new issues. Apparantly my Dell drivers disk doesn't come with almost none of the neccessary drivers, I cannot go into Standby mode, I have no audio and I can't play any videos and scrolling on pages is very choppy, and a host of other little issues. Anyone ever had to do a restore have some tips here?? I've been trying to find the stuff I need to get this thing working but can't find the right stuff.

87GT Posted September 23, 2008 Report Share Posted September 23, 2008 If you put in your restore CD and reboot the computer does it come up "press any key to boot from CD" ? If so hit a key and see if it will start the setup program Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Apex Posted September 23, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2008 Makes sense......I bought a 16bg flash drive to store stuff for now though things should be better now that I have a lot of added security. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
