Title: URGENT! Please help :[
Post by: bebe on July 04, 2004, 06:01:08 PM
My brand new computer is messed up, please help. The other problem isn't virus related though. Sorry.

FIRST PROBLEM
(http://img14.photobucket.com/albums/v41/babyxsmilez/trojanhorse.gif)

This always pops up when I open my Internet Explorer. I already have had my computer scanned by AVG Anti-Virus System, but it said it can't delete or heal it. What should I do? I have a brand new computer & it's making everything so slow. Pop-ups also appear on my computer all the time now.

SECOND PROBLEM:

I tried to uninstall this program. So I went to Remove/Add Programs & removed it. But it still appears on my computer & pops up saying the above since I deleted it. It's really annoying because the program still runs when I start up my computer.

In IE, Tools, IE Options, Advanced, & under "Navigation" Uncheck:

"Activate install on demand" (Other) , and, "Activate install on demand" (Internet Explorer)

And make sure that you are using a firewall.

If you only use IE6 to update your system with then you can use Opera 7.52 for your internet working.

Opera has a built-in pop-up stopper. See: Opera, Options.
