Download AdAware , update, run. Download Spybot, update, run. Those should help tremendously. I've notice that anti-virus programs are shite and the free programs are the ones that actually work good... McAfee = shit. Norton = shit/now your PC runs slow.

Note! This is a direct link to the .exe for spybot download.

This one is for Adaware.

I would, but I can't log in. It logs me off as soon as I try logging in reg windows or any type of safe mode etc.

 

u could get a harddrive from walmart or somthing, install windows on that, run anti virus/spy/adware from the new drive then format it and bring it back...
ive done it before when i was at a friends house, it was closer to walmart then my house so i went there instead of going home and grabbing one rolleyes.gif

 

knoppix + thumb drive will save you.

Or you can just do a repair install. fing02.gif

Knoppix is like a remote operating system or something right? I recall a kid in m java class who used it to run IP programs or something.... Here is the web definition, and it turns out I'm right.

Knoppix is a Linux distribution LiveCD. Knoppix is a Debian based Linux distribution running on a CD drive without using the hard drive or installing any files onto the hard drive. Knoppix was developed by GNU/Linux consultant Klaus Knopper.

I don't know how you would use this to your advantage, but I would sure like to know. Please enlighten me!

 

in this case basicly so u can view all the files on ur "broken" hard drive rolleyes.gif

 

Login in safe mode with network support. Then go to the microsoft.com website. If you click on security they have a online spyware scanner which takes care of most threatening spywares. I'd expect what you have to be covered.

 

Login to Safe Mode w/Networking, then you should be able to get online.

I would run these two programs, "CCleaner" and "ewido Anti-Malware" They are both freeware, you should be able to find them through Google or Download.com

If those still don't work, there's a program called "Dial-a-Fix" which can repair broken registry links/entries.

I don't think I've ever seen a problem that these 3 progams could not detect (I am a Network Administrator / Tech Support, so I see a lot tongue.gif)

Of course, run Adaware, and/or Norton/Defender before using the other three.

Also, do all the Windows Updates, and look at your update history to make sure you have not failed any, I have seen updates download and install halfway, become corrupt, and f**k everything up. If you have missed an update, get the error # and search it on Microsoft's KB, they will have a fix/workaround for it.


Good luck
