hey! My computer is slowing down and its probably because of malware! I don't know what kind of malware it is cause I'm new at this kinda stuff so I need ur help!
My computer is running SO SLOW!! I can't even surf the internet! I remembered how fast it is b4 and I really missed it! It took me 2 hours just to come here and post this thread!!!!
And also I keep getting this little warning pop-ups saying

YOUR COMPUTER IS INFECTED WITH SPYWARE!
Click OK if you wish to remove it!


It looks like fake I guess. You know, probably caused by those stupid malware!!
How do I remove it?? What kind of malware is that?? Is it possible if I clean it using Spyware Doctor?? I've heard a lot of good stuff about them!
So hope you can help me with this!

Thanks,
SugarBlush

Hi SugarBlush...

Let's let the malware experts deal with this one.

Please go to the Malware Forum and follow the instructions found there.

That will give you several steps that will help you clean up 70 percent of all problems by yourself...then post a hijackthis log in THAT forum. Be patient, the Malware Forum is a very busy place and a two or three day wait is not unusual. Do not reply to or bump your own topic. If it shows a reply it may be overlooked as one that is being worked on.

Click Here to start a new topic and paste your log.

If you are still having problems after getting a clean bill of health from the malware expert, please return to this thread.
