    Alright, let me walk you throught this..

    First: Go and unplug your computer from the mains, internet, and any peripherals.

    Second: Pick up the tower (the monitor too if you like), becareful not to drop it on your toe

    Third: Throw it out the nearest availible window.*


    Anyway, yea, sucks.. but thats what you get for using that p2p ****. I've ****ed up my computer twice with that crap (stupid Kazaa), had to dump the lot and reinstall my operating system :twak:

      go to microsofts website and you can tell them your problems. They have a few free downloads... alot for the trojan virus which is probably what you have. Better fix it soon or later on you won't be able to get online. Or you can take it to Geek Squad and i think they charge 200 bux to clean out the whole system and install virus programs.

                    Do an internet search and download Grisofts AVG anti-virus program(Be sure to look for the free edition and update it regularly) and spybot. Both are free to download and both have been terrific for me over the years. I also recommend downloading a different web browser like Mozilla Firefox or Netscape. Too many virus' attach themselves to Internet explorer.

                      Def. what he said, hopefully AVG will be able to remove the problem, if not, then your best bet is going to be reformatting and reinstalling the OS.
                      Firefox is mans best friend :D

                      heres the links for the actual programs if you need them.

                      Firefox Web Browser
                      Spybot Search and Destroy

                        You probably have some ad program on there now. Look through add or remove programs for anything that stands out. And you shouldn't be all up on the internetz without a rubber. She gets around.

                          Run a spyware scrubber like Lavasoft's ad-aware. That should take out most of that crap.

                              effective - yes. Perhaps there are better solutions to try first.
