Last week my computer was infected through MSN messenger. Since then my AVG has found 8 virures. I downloaded Ad-aware Se but when I run it my computer keeps sending me a notice of illegal operation 02i5lp04 message of invalid page faults. When I bypass it the program finishes but after the quarantee my computer freezes and will not remove the infected files. I had 539 of those so quite a number. Please help.

This is Win 98 SE and I am using AVG Free antivirus program which did catch it. So far they have 16 files in the fault. however the Ad-Aware does not work in the final stage to remove the 359 files which are on the computer. I have no experience in this kind of thing.THANKS for your help.

Try scanning in safe mode. Use different spyware scanners as well.

I run both Ad-Aware AND Spy-Bot, as they both seem to clean different corners. I had a similar problem about a year ago, and after booting in Safe Mode, disconnecting my internet connection, running both spyware programs, my anti-virus full scan (NAV 2004 at the time), then doing a reboot, it seemed to get along just fine. I got all of those updated as soon as I could get back on the internet, and ran them all again, just to be sure.
Hope it works for you!

If you don't know the answer, it isn't a dumb question.

Download & run http://www.ccleaner.com first. Then do the Adaware & Spybot thing. |

If your adaware definitions are so out of date with no new definitions available then I suggest your adaware core is out of date. When this happens adaware stop giving new definitions without telling you why. I think the current core is 1.06r1. |

Merlin_2 The latest definition update for Build 1.06r1 is .......10.08.2005 ......... Perhaps your using an old build ....... When did M/S aquire the Company in Europe that produces SpyBot ? Cheers dl65 |
