good morning everyone! :)
i need all the help i can get from u guys.
i installed the NOD32 antivirus on my pc and found parite b virus,parite b unpacked virus,small K virus and trojan b virus...came from a yulgang bot/auto attack program received by my brother from a friend who plays the scions of fate online game.After scanning and cleaning,it says these viruses cant be cleaned.My pc was still running smoothly after running the anti virus software but after 4 hours pc crashed.When i tried to restart it ,I cannot log in anymore.Deskstop freezes and I cant use any program.Now more problem is,i had deep freeze installed and i cant unfreeze it.I hired a computer technician to fix the problem but he wasnt able to fix it.
What shall I do?Any advise regarding this?
Note:I am not a computer techie.I use my pc for emails,surfing and confrence calls on msn and ym most of the time.I dont have much knowledge on computer "lingo".
thank you.

Do you have a real WIndows CD? Is this home or pro?
-
I dont know if the techie who assembled my pc and installed the programs used real Windows CD.
I havent been able to fix it yet.
Same problem:cant run any program right now.if i start pc,deskstop still froze and on depfreeze.
-
go into safe mode and disable deepfreeze and anything else thats not required for start up
rapidly press f8 before windows loads
go into msconfig to do this
start run enter msconfig click ok and go to start up and uncheck any programs like wordd or deepfreeze that arent required for windos to start up

If you didn't get a CD and COA sticker on the case it is probably not.
Everyone needs a real Windows CD sooner or later. In your case it appears to be sooner. ;)

hi!
to GX1_Man: techie installed real windows Xp cd...
Was unable to Unfreeze my pc.So, Reformatted my pc today and running smoothly now.
Downside is,I lost my free hours to reformatting it instead of going to sleep after work.lol.and lost important files!:(
Installed another anti virus software,deep freeze and firewall from my internet provider.
After reformat,Scanned for viruses and still found trojan,worm and vbs.small K viruses.
From 1400++ viruses before reformatting,down to 40 trojan,worm and viruses total now after reformat.
Question1.What anti trojan software will I use to be able to delete them completely?and delete the worm as well?
Question2.What exactly is a yulgang program?What does it do?what i just know is,its a bot used in an online game.Is it the one that made my pc crash???
-
AntiVir anti virus software installed.Is this good?
-

You should have NOTHING on there after a format. THe rule is to not even connect the cable to the internet until you have installed SP2, a good antivirus and spyware protection. AVG and Spybot come to mind. They're free and they work.

superantispyware and avg anti-spyware adaware se personel also

Sounds like you need SiteAdvisor (http://www.siteadvisor.com). It'll make Google a lot easier by telling you what sites are good and what sites are bad. And SpywareBlaster (http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareblaster.html) will make it just a tad bit safer for you.
