run a KASPERSKY ONLINE SCAN (click to scan 'MY COMPUTER')
http://www.kaspersky.co.uk/virusscanner
Please post the complete log it creates (This only SCANS it DOESNT delete anything, so we'd need to see anything it finds)
The scan will likely take anywhere from 5 to 12 hours to complete!:idea:0 -
morning, i cant get that page to load. I can go to www.kaspersky.co.uk but when i click on the free virus scan it just takes forever but doesnt actually get there as with the link above.
Im really starting to hate computers now ha0 -
Oddly that link isnt working (Which always has before today)
Use this one ~

Download SUPERANTISPYWARE (Make sure you click 'DOWNLOAD LATEST VERSION')
http://www.filehippo.com/download_superantispyware/
UPDATE and PERFORM COMPLETE SCAN
(Then goto console and LOGS and post the log it created then untick it from STARTING UP WITH WINDOWS):idea:0 -

hi didnt get a chance to do the above, it said logging off and again as usual got stuck. I pressed the button to turn off and restarted. This time when ive turned it back on after the welcome screen the screen has gone black and the i have got a movable cursar. Cant do anything now - dont know weather to press button again, am using the family computer to access internet. Im assuming its well and truly knackered now0
