Help! Virus!

[adil786]

Call me geek or whatever but I highly suspect I have a virus. I suspect this because:

A few months ago uptill now my PC restarts when my PC slightly crashes. :o Not major crashing.
I thought then I have a virus but didnt pay attention to it.

Now I highly suspect it as I opened firefox and a page popped up about donations or what not. ... :eek:
Then a icon of a program appeared on my desktop which wasnt there before.

Theres alot of things going on.

I want to know how can I clean this out ... Any help anyone? :( :torture:

Jazkallah everyone :) :D

lol nyways try to locate the virus file go to safe mode and try to delete it from there, if d file dont delete create a folder n dash it in d folder n delete the folder

also go on run n type msconfig then go to start up
see n check if there any programes which look dodgy search on google what they are n then untick the one dats dodgy.

dunno bout ny softwares tho

Thats exactly what my uncle sed to me 'dodgy sites'. Im getting suspicous lol. :outta: :p. kidin.

Thanks for the advice, how do I know which folders the virus. My kaspersky located some 'keygens' i downloaded and said that theyre trojans, it deleted them before I could.

Hopefully after the can I can do what you reccomend. ;)

best thing to do is when the pop up appears or when u think the virus is making an effect open task manager quickly n try to locate whats taking up the cpu usage

if its someting normal then its ayt but if its something suspiciuos on there google it n find out what it is then you may be able to locate it.

What you need to do is DL & run SUPERantispyware( free)
Keygens modify registry entries etc. See if this helps. make sure you update the program after installing and before running it.

AV SCAN + SPYBOT SCAN in safe mode. Also it could be your bios settings .. may be u left it off for a long time and the settings gone bak2 normal.

use a spybot and a registry cleaner and it should be fine you should do a virus scan once a week if possible
