I don't know what to do and i'm so worried. My PC keeps crashing, i keep getting "so and so can't get through as timed out" i get this sort of message when i try to get into a certain website address and i can't get in because of this "timed out" thingy. Also my Mozilla Firefox crashed and all my bookmarks were lost..
I downloaded free Virus Checkers and they detected a Trojan, but i couldn't get it cleaned..
I'm so worried in case Hackers have stolen my credit/debit card info from my computer.. :mad:
Please can anyone help?

Ok do this go to http://smb.sygate.com/products/spf_standard.htm get I mean download it then install it and get any required updates if asked, then run it.
Restart PC in safe mode by tapping F8 then do a scan0 -

P.S any probs running a scan etc or downloading get back and we can sort (hopefully), there a good bunch on the Techie Forum
Takes a while to get through 2.2mb
If you get the problem every hour on the hour dont worry
there is a problem with the sites servers, they do a refresh every hour.
Well Im sure I did read this somewhere.0 -
