    ComboFix and HiJackThis Log

    Virus has taken over computer

    I tried installing HiJackThis, but- unless the older version I had was replaced by this newly installed version- it seems the installation didn't do anything. The version I have right now is 2.0.4. Will that suffice?

    So I should download one of the Rkill files from this pc I'm using now (which is clean) onto a flash drive, and upload the file onto my infected PC in regular mode, or safe mode?

    Virus has taken over computer

    Hello, I just contracted one of those virus-disguised-as-virus-protection viruses. The virus won't allow me to access the internet, or run malwarebytes. Right now, I'm using my roommate's computer. However, I am able to use my computer just fine in safe mode with networking. I'm not using...

    How Do I Customize/Replace Printer Drivers So I Can Scan And Print Whatever I Want?

    Wireless Router Not Working

    Hello all. I recently bought and setup a Linksys Wireless-N Home Router, Model WRT120N. Despite having followed the instructions on the installation cd EXACTLY as they appeared (which wasn't hard at all), neither I nor my roommate can establish a remote connection. My roommate (who uses a...

    Corel wasn't working at all at one point, so I had to repair it. Now, although it's up and running again, it's simply behaving a bit differently. For instance, when I opened a document in there the other day, the zoom bar which once resided in the lower left corner was no longer there, nor...
