Virus Problem - whybanme - 2009-03-03
This doesn't have anything to do with MapleStory, but this is the best section I could find to put it in.
Anyway, I visited some website where it automatically downloaded this shitty thing called SpyWare protect or something of the sort. It comes up every time I turn on my computer. It seems to have infected my internet explorer files, but I can't delete them. I also can't use internet explorer, because when I try it brings automatically brings me to a site. I can't go anywhere on IE so I'm posting this on firefox. It also seems to be affecting my other browsers, as the speed it horrendously slow. Any idea how to get rid of it? AVG seems to detect it but for some reason wont delete it...

Did you try Spybot Search & Destroy? You can find it at downloads.com

Odd...Something seems to be preventing Spybot S&D from opening. It shows up in the process list, but I don't see the actual program. Is it possible to try to run it in safemode and run a scan in that?
