Hi,
I have Vista and I got the virus when I went to the MLB.com website, at least that's whenmy computer when carzy. I got the blue screen of death 2 times , once almost immediately and then a second time whe I restarted the computer, not knowing what I had yet. I got the basci security suite main screen telling me I had tons of virues, which i figured out fairly quickly it was a scam virus. I went to Bleeping computer and several other forums and site in safe mode and on my laptop, to get some answers.
Everyone says that you need to go into the Internet options and turn on the proxy settings, but with me it's the opposite. My proxy settings were checked and when checked I cannot access the Internet. when I uncheck them I can get online no problem.
Also, in Safe mode, I am still getting redirected to other sites (which I somehow got a couple of weeks ago and can't seem to get rid of), but also when I first signed on in safe mode I opened up the help for IE8. Now whenever I do anything in safe mode, like open IE, or even trying to open RKill.com, the window for that exact hlep pops up, every time. I cannot run rkill as it closes and reports after 1 second. On the bleeping computer site they say to keep clicking until it cathes, but I have clicked it over 200 times and nothing will stay open to run. I have run malware in safde mode, and hijack this, trojen removal, AVG, and done everything I can from every forum I can find.
My problenm doesn't seem to match up with everyone elses. I would appreciate any help I can get here.
I have a working knowledge of computers, so I can do whatever I am told to do, I just don't know what to delete unless I am told to now.
Thanks for any help
Bill
