Viruse or something else on Win XP?

Hey guys, well i have this problem...
i had some registry files corrupted with trojan which my anti virus registred (talking about true sword 5 trial version) and since it is not full version of anti virus i couldn't remove those using anti virus but i havd to do it manualy, which i did.
After that anti virus did not detected it anymore which probably means that i have removed it from my comp.
Now, problem is that i have same issues without virus like i have it.
Those issues would be, i cant open any antivirus web page as long as i dont look up for some not so famous antiviruses, also i have problem instaling Avira anti virus (whan i start instalation it just turns instalation process off without any warning).
One more problem is that my printer wouldnt work, and i cant run windows in safe mode.
I am 100% sure that this happends becouse of that virus (not sure about safe mode), now my question is: since i removed virus and it's not detectable, why do i have same issues as like i have virus?
Can anyone help me resolve this issue, and plz tell me how :D
thx in advance

Hi!
I think the virus did modify or delete some system files so are not able to boot in safe mode, print documents and so far.
Furthermore I must agree Raver. The best way would be to reinstall Windows with the recovery disk. This takes only few minutes but safe your data before. The HDD will be completely formatted.
If have reinstalled Windows, you should first install all Service Packs and Hotfixes (visit the Windows update website).
And dont forget to install a antivirus program like AntiVir (freeware).
Bye

  • Virus, a Trojan, or something else?

    Virus, Trojan, something else?
    My computer sent an email to about 50 people yesterday with an attached zip file. The email had no subject, and the zip file contained about 20GB worth of documents off my computer. Most of the recipients are not in my addressbook, but all were people whom I have emailed before. The name of the attachment ends with documents-1-1.mailhold.zip.
    Does anyone know what cause be email to get sent? Was this a virus, a Trojan, or something else?
    Thanks for the help.

  • I think I need to change to Chrome because the 5.0 Firefox is not compatible with my Kaspersky Anti-Virus which is block the 5.0 from installing. Unless you can fix this I can not update and must go with Chrome or something else. Running Windows 7.

    Our Kaspersky Anti-Virus is blocking Firefox 5.0 identifying it as malicious. Firefox message stated that Kaspersky URL Advisory & Kaspersky Virtual Keyboard, 11.0.2.579. If this is not resolved we will have to change to another browser quickly. Have used Firefox for many years and hate to change but will not give up any of our Kaspersky protections. Please email with any further information or suggestions. Thanks for you assistance.

    So we can continue using our current Firefox version until Kaspersky's update? Or, do we need to switch to Chrome or something else. We are senior citizens and not really up to speed on all things technical. Usually get answers from, Kim Komando's site. But wanted to try working with the Firefox community first for this problem. Thanks for your advice. Just want to be sure we can continue to use our current version of Firefox and it will keep everything up and running. Also read something about a problem with gmail and want to be sure that has been completely resolved before switching to the 5.0 Firefox.

  • When I am in firefox and I go to google and click on a link, it pops up as something else randomly. The only way it works is by coping the link into address bar

    When I am in firefox and I go to google and click on a link, it pops up as something else randomly. The only way it works is by coping the link into address bar. I thought it might be google so I went to bing and it did the same thing. it will not go to the link but instead change to livesearchnow or ihavenet.com
    It is really a pain as I search google ALOT. So please someone help. I reset firefox once and even reinstalled it once as well as updated it once. Nothing works.

  • Delete all photos from windows? did something change in win 8.1 or ios8?

    using win 8.1
    iPhone 5
    ios8
    in windows explorer i drag/drop the pictures to my desktop, no problem, copy done
    i used to be able to then select the same file and just delete
    now i'm getting an error that the device has been disconnected or unavailable. (sorry, i don't have the exact message anymore)
    i used to get this problem if i hadn't selected to "trust" the device but i can confirm that was done
    a suggestion on the web was to use the option to "import photos" and then in the advanced options choose the option to delete the files after import. the import works, but the files don't get deleted so it seems like there is something related here.
    any ideas?
    i needed to wipe my phone so i did it completely manually from the photos app by selecting every picture and then deleting the recently deleted photos.

    ooba,
    > My question is what has changed from flash mx pro
    > to flash 8 pro when calling functions.
    Honestly ... not a thing. ActionScript has new features (new
    APIs) in
    Flash 8 that weren't available in Flash MX 2004 -- and MX
    2004, in turn, had
    new features that weren't available in Flash MX -- but those
    are mainly
    enhancements to the corresponding Flash Player, with each
    release. The
    manner in which functions are called hasn't changed since
    Flash 5.
    > On frame 1 I have several functions that use to work.
    > Such as function getRaterRatingData(result)...
    > and I could call them from that frame or nested movie

    You should still be able to do that.
    > But, now I have had to change the functions to
    > _global.getRaterRatingData = function(result)...
    > in order for me to call them.
    There must be something else going on that you haven't told
    us (or
    aren't aware of yet).
    > Any ideas as to why this is? I was not getting any
    errors
    > the previous way, it was just that the functions were

    How did you test for that? Did you troubleshoot with a
    trace()
    statement, maybe?

    You need to get the owner's manual for your Ford's bluetooth system to see how to put your system into discovery mode for the iPhone as well as the appropriate steps to take. 
    In addition, you should see if the iPhone is supported.

  • Downloading a file would bring up an option to open the file or save it - for some reason now it just downloads straight to the download folder. Why? Problem with Firefox or something else?

    Downloading a file would normally bring up an option to open the file with the appropriate program or save it - for some reason now it just downloads straight to the download folder. Why? Problem with Firefox or something else? It's very frustrating - sometimes you want the file opened first so it can be discarded or saved to a different location.

    Hey. that's great! Thanks for posting back with the outcome.

  • On some pages the text from more than one paragraph stack up on top of each other, like writing something then writing something else on top of it.

    On some pages the text from more than one paragraph stack up on top of each other, like writing something then writing something else over the top of it. Some pages will run text and pictures together, like a car rear-ending another or a train pile up. Other pages will cut an image or text short, i.e. it will display a portion of the top of the image or text but not the rest. This happens on Amazon for example, the section where it says "Customers who looked at this also looked at" will allow only a certain amount of the upper portion of the description immediately below the picture of the product but below that section everything is fine until I get to another section displaying more products and their descriptions and then it cuts the bottom portions off again. I've noticed this behavior mostly in the sections with product photos, the text sections seem okay. YouTube also displays this behavior. It's even doing it on this page right now. Below this box I can read "The more information you can provide the better chance your question will be answered " , but directly below that in the next sentence I can see the start of it with "Troublshootin" and the "Automatically Add" in a green field covering the "g". The next clear text is "A window will open in the top corner. Click Allow, and then click Install. If the automated way doesn't work, try these manual steps." I tried turning of pre-fetching, clearing history, cookies, and cache, scanning for malware with Avast and Windows Defender all to no avail. It began when I upgraded from dial up to DSL via AT&T Uverse. I have a Motorola NVG510 modem. The modem was replaced an hour ago along with new dedicated lines and DSL/Phone splitter from the box by an AT&T technician to make sure my incoming lines were up to par. He ran a connection test and verified everything is up to standards. IE does not display this behavior. I am running Firefox20.0.1 and all previous versions have acted the same way since I upgraded to DSL about 3 months ago.

    If you have increased the minimum font size then try the default setting "none" in case the current setting is causing problems.
    *Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > Minimum Font Size (none)
    Make sure that you allow websites to choose their fonts.
    *Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced: [X] "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"
    It is better not to increase the minimum font size, but use an extension to set the default page zoom to prevent issues with text not being displayed properly.
    You can use an extension to set a default font size and page zoom on web pages.

It was an expensive gift and we can't find it now! Please help! How do i turn it on without finding it because she can't remember where it was.

    That is so dumb...Apple is the best and most techinological company IN THE WORLD and they don't have the time to invent something like that? HUH? All they are worried about is making the "Worlds best Phone" and they can't take the time out to help their users or anybody that has their products. All they have is "Find mt Iphone" Well they should step up and do something else to help people like me out. Find a way to turn it on and you can find it or find a way to turn it on remotely.
    Thank you for your replys

  • How does Azure Compute Emulator (or the Azure one) determine if a role is web project or something else ("The Web Role in question doesn't seem to be a web application type project")?

    I'm not sure if this is F# specific or something else, but what could cause the following error message when trying to debug locally an Azure cloud service:
    The Web Role in question doesn't seem to be a web application type project.
    I added an empty F# web api Project to a solution (which adds Global.asax etc., I added an OWIN startup class Startup etc.) and then from an existing
    cloud service project I picked Roles and
    chose Add
    -> Web Role Project in solution, which finds the F# web project (its project type guids are 349C5851-65DF-11DA-9384-00065B846F21 and F2A71F9B-5D33-465A-A702-920D77279786),
    of which the first one seem to be exactly the GUID that defines a web application type.
    However, when I try to start the cloud project locally, I get the aforementioned error message. I have a C# Web Role project that will start when I remove the F# project. I also have F# worker
    role projects that start with the C# web role project if I remove this F# web role project. If I set the F# web project as a startup project,
    it starts and runs as one would expect, normally.
    Now, it makes me wonder if this is something with F# or could this error message appears in C# too, but I didn't find anything on Google. What kind of checks are there when starting the emulator and which one needs
    failing to prompt the aforementioned message? Can anyone shed light into this?
    Sudet ulvovat -- karavaani kulkee

    Sudet,
    Yeah you are right, the GUID mentioned seems to be correct and the first one i.e. {349C5851-65DF-11DA-9384-00065B846F21} means the web application project which compute emulator uses to determine while spawning up role instances.
    You might want to compare the csproj of your C# and F# web projects which might give some pointers.
    Are you able to run your F# web project locally in IIS? If yes then you will definitely be able to run it on azure so I will recommend to test it in IIS Express first.
    Here are some other tips which you can refer or see If you are yet to do those settings
    1. Turn on the IIS Express - You can do it by navigating to project properties
    2. Install Dependent ASP.NET NuGets / Web Api dependencies (If there are any missing), Reference System.Web assembly
    Also I will suggest to refer this nice article about how to create a F# web Api project
    http://blog.ploeh.dk/2013/08/23/how-to-create-a-pure-f-aspnet-web-api-project/
    Hope this helps you.

    I just got iphone 5c and i am not happy with it. It uses to much data and i don't even know how. I can't get the ringtones i want for my contacts.I got it on my free upgrade but i want to take it back and get something else but where i got it they say i can't because i don't have the earbuds and i have serches or them. now i am suck with a phone i don't like at all until my next upgrade. this is very dishearten

    1. If you are this unhappy with that phone, and the lost earbuds is the only thing stopping you from taking it back, why do not just buy some earbuds. That way you can get rid of that phone. It all depend upon how much you want to get rid of that phone.
    2. Yet if you are stuck with that iPhone, here is something might help you to control the data usage. By design, iPhones do turn off WiFi when they go dormant. So if a download is in progress and so forth when the phone goes dormant, it will switch to use cellular data, if this setting is left on. Therefore, from multi-sources I have learned that if you keep your iPhone connected to a power source, then it will stay connected to the available WiFi.

  • The only thing I did was get down to 5GB HDD space, had a half-import, & something else

    By that I mean here's what I got:
    Both Libraries are the same path....
    As in the title, I was/am running out of HDD drive space, I recently (and last time) had my last iPhone (IOS 7.*.*) iPhoto import go snafu (for first time between this MBP and 3 other iphones....ever), and I think I did something else like at the least a CHECKSUM or VERIFIED or REPAIRED permissions which seemed to make some other stuff squirlley.
    Anyway, I have a mid-late 2010 (OCT) 7,1 MacBook Pro 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo running Mac OS X Version 10.7.5 with 8 GM 1067 MHz DDR3 RAM and a 250GB 2.5" startup disk
    *******I have a 1TB SSD/HDD here waiting to replace my boot drive, with the adapter kit from OWC and all, but want to back up all my stuf and make it reduntant a few times first.  Problem is I have 1000 great photos since our snowfall here in the NE and don't to lose them and the ones of my daughter and baby daughter. 
    Any help is much appreciated.
    Best Regards,
    GJ

    Sorry but I do not even know what your question is
    as a side note you must always have a minimum of 10GB of free space on your hard drive and more is better
    If your photos are on your iphone then backup to iCloud in case of issues
    I you could post a simple question with only the revelant context it would be good

  • Black macbook: not sure if its the fan, or something else (noise)

    I got this macbook is september. I had no issues with it, when suddenly it began making noises. Now, I'm a gadget-blog reader, so I've been aware of Macbooks making the "moooo" sound from the fan; however, I'm not sure if my noise is the fan or something else. I get more of a "whrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr" noise.
    1) I have the macbook plugged in
    2) I leave it on all the time
    3) It began to hear the "whrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr" when:
    a) activate visualizer in iTUNES
    b) download shows off iTUNES
    c) have a bunch of windows open and the 512MB Memory is struggling to access each window, if I say, I want to close them.
    Considering this is the uncrashable, flexible, awesome OSX, and should be pesk-free, like say WINXP...I would expect such problems to not exist on the glossy OSX.
    I'm currently studying abroad in the United Kingdom. I bought this macbook in San Francisco just before I left. I have plenty of warranty left. Is this a big issue? It annoys the **** out of me. None of the macbooks demoed in the store had this problem. So in a way, this is false advertising, since I'm reading that a lot of people have this noise issue.
    I've fully updated my firmwares with software updater, but I still get the noise. So I'm at situation that needs some outside help as to what I should do.
    Thanks.

    hard to say if it is serious or not. have you tried resetting the pmu? http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303319 that could very well help the matter.
