"Click here to protect your computer from spyware!"
"Your computer is infected! Windows has detected an infection of spyware! It is recommended to use special antispyware tools to prevent data loss. Windows will now download and install the most up-to-date antispyware for you."
Also i sometimes, not as often get a popup stating "Attention! System detected a potential hazard (TrojanSPM/LX) on your computer that may infect executable files. Your private information and PC safety is at risk. To get rid of unwanted spyware and keep your computer safe you need to update your current security software. Click OK to download official intrusion detection system (IDS software)
I would post a screenshot of both but i cannot open paint to put the screenshot on because of an error message i will adress
I know this is a malware problem from a rogue antivirus company trying to get me to spend money to rid me of the virus they gave me.
hxxp://advancedvirusremover-2009.com
This is the site they are trying me to get to.
I cannot use System Restore or Command Prompt. anytime i try i get an error that i suspect is actually the virus blocking the use of them stating "Application cannot be executed. The file is infected. Please activate your antivirus software."
I did a full system scan using Norton Antivirus 2008 it found one Spyware tracker but this has not rid me of this problem.
I also tried using one of your other guides from a topic someone else has started with the same virus using The comedian.exe. i downloaded the file and tried to run it but got the same "Application cannot be executed ect" message when trying to open the file.
Everytime i try to click a link i get redirected to whatever it wants me to go to. for instance when i try to click your Home link it redirects me to
hxxp://www.allgive.com/alt/results.php?sea...amp;affid=44758
I copy link location and this is what i get (from the topic i referred to earlier.)
hxxp://thefeedyard.com/?do=rphp&sub=24...us-t252075.html
The only way i can use links at all is to delete all text following up to
www.geekstogo.com/forum/TrojanSPM-LX-virus-t252075.html
As you can imagine this is very frustrating as i sometimes also have a connection problem unrelated to the virus that sometimes gives me the 404 error on certain webpages when the internet works just fine for others. Any help you can give me will be greatly appreciated and if theres anything i might have left out feel free to ask and ill be glad to fill you in. I look forward to a response, thank you.
