    sometimes the easiest thing to do is just save everything onto dvds or a second hard drive, format your computer then just load everything back on.

    if its a stubborn virus you can spend hours going around in circles to remove it. i usually just format my comp and start fresh and reinstall stuff.


    could these discussions be kept out of the help threads

    And please do not install any other antivirus programmes in the mean time (such as comodo). Please follow instructions as stated in post 5.
