    Welcome aboard Dean, your post in malware looks OK. Now the hard part is the waiting, as they take the posts from oldest first and they're quite busy as you can see. Good luck man.:)

    My name is Sam. I've owned a computer for a fair while, but i've only been on the internet a couple of months. I don't now much about the net and i've got some sort of virus problems since i've gone on the net. Hoping some one can help me with what i should istall to fix these roblems. ( I have regestry problems, and i'm not sure what else).

    Yours hopefully Sam.

    Hi Sam

    Welcome to Major Geeks!


    Please follow the instructions in the READ & RUN ME FIRST link given futher down and attach the requested logs when you finish these instructions.
    • If you have problems where no tools seem to run, please try following the steps given in the below and then continue on no matter what you find. You only need to try the TDSSserv steps if having problems getting scans in the Read & Run Me First.
    • If something does not run, write down the info to explain to us later but keep on going.
    • Do not assume that because one step does not work that they all will not.
    READ & RUN ME FIRST. Malware Removal Guide


    Notes:


    1. If you run into problems trying to run the READ & RUN ME or any of the scans in normal boot mode. You can run steps in safe boot mode but make sure you tell us what you did later when you post logs. See the below if you do not know how to boot in safe mode:
    2. If you have problems downloading on the problem PC, download the tools on another PC and burn to a CD. Then copy them to the problem PC. You will have to skip getting updates if (and only if) your internet connection does not work. Yes you could use a flash drive too but flash drives are writeable and infections can spread to them.

    Once finished please start a new thread in the Malware Forum plus a guide on how to attach the logs HOW TO: Attach Items To Your Post

    Good day to both of you. :wave When I first came here, on a friend's reccommendation, I had malware problems. Do as Halo has suggested and follow the READ & RUN ME FIRST. Malware Removal Guide. Took me a while but the results are well worth it.
