Solve : Hope this is an easy one.?

Answer»

Ok I just finished a diagnostic of my friend's computer:  (Dell, Pentium 4 CPU 2.00 GHZ, 1.99 Ghz, 1 Gig  RAM, XP Pro 2002 SP2)

I ran a full scan with AVG free.  Found and deleted 7 trojan horse downloaders.  Ran spybot found a couple of things and they were deleted.  (did the scans in safe mode with system restore off.)  I also had to get rid of his old Norton Anti-virus because it was slowing the system.  

Only problem left is that his IE would lock up.  usually it would do this if you were trying to logon with username and password to a website.  Had to End Task everytime.  Should I tell him to get Ewido or something?  As I said, he's got Spybot S&D, AVG free, and Adaware.  (all updated)  Ewido, now known as AVG Antispyware sure wouldn't hurt.make sure to do the scans in safe mode with system restore turned off...


also try adaware se personel

Don't take that serious. I was chiming in and teasing.im not just made me reread the opHow's fordtruckmaniac doin' ? ?  Long see No Time.I'm doing OK, thanks.

I just mostly HIDE in the background and READ.   Meanwhile the original poster has gone missing.   Quote
As far as I can see there are no experts resident here.
You don't see very far then.thanks guys.  The problem fixed itself after a reboot.  

For the RECORD, I have found this site to be full of experts who are not condescending and very helpful.At times we do seem condescending...but that's only when our patience has worn thin.

Glad your visit here was a good one and seeya around !
