Have a serious virus
My beloved children somehow bestowed my desktop with a Virtumonde.prx Trojan virus. Its locked me out of safemode, and repopulates after startup. Only people I can find that might be able to help me is Spybot Search and Destroy but my forum post is going on four days and still isnt answered. I can either pay someone to fix this or reimage the computer. Any thoughts before I go that route? All Ive wanted to do is play WoW went I got back from sea, tried to play on my laptop last night but didnt work to well.
Thanks for your help. Orion. |

Sorry to hear that. Personally, I would wipe it.

Re: Have a serious virus
I had to reload the operating system when I got something like that. Thank God for recovery CDs.

Re: Have a serious virus
I had a run in with the Google Redirect Virus last week... while not technically a virus, it still caused me about 3 hours worth of trouble trying to clean it off....

Re: Have a serious virus
Well some good news got some Tech help from the Spybot search and destroy forum malwar removal team seems like I am back in business. Used a program Malawarebytes anti Malaware after they analyzed a log from another program called Hijack This. So far so good. Hope to be on tonight and say hi. Wanted to get up to 70 so i could play with you folks might have to wait till im home after Xmas. Leave for the Gulf of Mexico on Thursday.
