found some viruses in my computer (I think from NT too)

Post by Jennay »

I was able to clean and/or delete some of them except for 2 that are hidden in C:\\WINDOWS.Win.exe and C:\\WINDOWS\System32\Backup


So I'm digging around in my computer looking for these files and I find some with this wierd ass language. I know it's probably some techy language I don't know, and I tried using font options to switch it to normal English, but it won't. Anyone know what this is?

OH! BTW. I only go to the same 3 sites on this computer and most of the spyware and viruses are coming from THIS site (Nameless Tavern) I know this because I run a scan and get rid of everything, restart computer, and go back to this site, and check again.. and there they are!

Thanks in advance smart boys :)

AYYIIIEEE YOUR POST INFECTED ME!!!!! DAMN YOU!!!

Seriously, just get a copy of Norton Antivirus--haven't gotten a virus in 7 years since switching to them.

Oh yeah--a copy of spybot S+D, ad-aware, and that thing the actual S+D program suggests helps to.

You aren't getting any spyware from NT. You have programs actively running on your system that are repopulating every time you open internet explorer.

Run Anti Virus software + Ad Aware + Spybot..

Also, trash IE and get Mozilla Firefox.
