Hi,
I have a Compaq Presario C300 Notebook. Last week I seemed to have been infected with spyware and/or a virus. Sorry I'm not really a big computer wiz. I downloaded Avast virus protector and I think the other thing was called Spy Bot. They have been detecting viruses and Spybot throughout the week and supposedly deleting them. My computer has been running a little slower lately also, and its about 2 years old.
Today I started up my computer and left for about 5 minutes, when I come back both Avast and Spybot popped up saying they found something, but my computer was frozen so I held down the power button for a few seconds to turn it off. When I turned it back on it gets past the Microsoft Windows XP black page or whatever, and then it shows my default background and it will not load from there. I can move my mouse around but cannot left click or "ctrl alt delete" or anything else.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
