Oh wise one OH got malware on my laptop last night and only just found out.
I have done everything in the malwear thread, only problem is, when I am using the ediwo (avg spyware) and it finds stuff, it keeps coming up saying error while quarantining.
I have been trying to get rid of this for 2 hours now and I really really want to cry now, this bloody pop up keeps coming up taunting me. :mad:
How do I sort this damn error out, all my settings are as browntoa said they should be
Thank you

Symptoms? I have this bloody thing popping up
AVG spyware is picking up "adaware.generic" and some little tracking cookies, but spybot got rid of something (will have to find the log file beause I have forgot what it is now
