A RIPPER virus has taken over my computer. I am told by my pc that it doesn't detect my modem, CD-ROM Drive, CD-RW Drive, and until I did a quickrestore it changed my display settings to the lowest settings possible, then it changed it back when I tried to correct it. Now the only Disk Drive my pc detects is the Floppy Drive. I can't reboot it because it freezes my pc when I try to create a BOOT up diskette. Can someone please help. If so I would Really appreciate it. I am going to check for replies everyday until one works. THANK You for your time!!! http://vil.nai.com/vil/content/v_1037.htmRlCowboy02.....How did you determine that is a the "Ripper " virus....? If thats what it is you willl probably have to D/L the tool that merlin has pointed you at and put it on a cd as opposed to a floppy ........boot your P/C up in Safe Mode ......and the cd drives should be seen .......run the removal tool and you should be RID of it . The odd thing is if its ripper , thats a old virus, it funny your anti virus didnt catch it.....is it current ?
let us know ...
