Re: Help me get rid of this virus.

Hi, scottie. There is an excellent site that offers free assistance with malware removal:

http://www.malwareremoval.com/forum/index.php?sid=24a46180b7aec4ad8530550881b04f49

or you can google "malwareremoval.com". I once had a problem with a Google Redirect Virus and posted my problem on the site. The volunteers who assist have gone through an intensive training program and are highly experienced. I was matched up with a lovely gentleman from England. He spent hours walking me through various steps to clean up my computer and rid me of the virus. This was about two years ago. I felt confident with the site and confident dealing with him.

I would just do a system restore. Worked for me.

Re: Help me get rid of this virus.

OP , when I read the thread's title , I thought you were searching for advice on a home remedy for a cold virus , etc. , lol. I guess that's me being a baby boomer , with one foot in the past vernacular & the other in futuristic-today's lingo ! But glad no one is sick ! Just the computer !
