Virus i can't get rid of... HELP PLEASE
I have got my mates computer in front of me because he has got a virus on it. He said when he got it, it came up as the bloodhound virus
 Well, ive gone into safe mode, deleted a hell of alot of useless programs like seach engines and toolbars, deleted all cookies, and temporary files, done a disk check, run ad-aware. It wont let me run norton so i cant do much there... IS there anything i can do to get it off..The computer is useless in its normal state, it has a black screen, sometimes switches itself off, and no programs can be opened. Its only in safe mode where i can actually do anything. ANy help would be much appreciated!! Lloyd |

Can you download and install programs on the machine? If so, download Kaspersky, install it, update it, and run a scan in safemode (it works in safemode). If you can't, post back.

rite...i restored it to two months ago, and i can get into the actuall user name on normal windows now, but it is really slow, and takes forever to open programs. But when i check on running processes in task manager, and say i have tried to open internet explorer twice, there will be two ''IEXPLORE.EXE'' but no visible programs. Whats wrong with it??

if you can get online, then try going through the sticky steps, (especially the online scanners), then post a Hijackthis log.

Instead of safemode, select "safemode with networking", only go to the links below.
http://download.mozilla.org/?product...win&lang=en-US Install Firefox and use it to go to this link http://download.ewido.net/ewido-setup.exe And then this link ftp://d-eu-2f.kaspersky-labs.com/tri...onalpro_en.exe Update both Ewido and Kaspersky and run full scans with both, then reboot to normal mode and see how things are.

With safemode with networking, you can get online, which you can't in safemode, but only go to the sites I mentioned, as your firewall and antivirus won't be up.
