System Shutdown?

Now I can't paste.. o_o?

Whatever..

The link has what's affected; The Virus is the Blaster Worm I think; Windows XP Home; I don't have one since I just readded the internet.. But I'm downloading AVG free 7.5, and I guess it's updated since I just downloaded it. I'm downloading the "patch" that Microsoft has for the Blaster Worm virus, so I'll see if it works.

Heres a link to a list of tools on the Symantec website

and a link specifically to the Blaster worm

If you can, run the link to the Symantec Online Scanner -- it will at least give you a name, then go back to the first link in this post, and hopefully there is a tool that can fix it for you.

Okay, so how do you disable system restore?

Nevermind .

[Freedom]

System REstore: click on Start
Then click on Help and Support.

Somewhere on there, you will see System Restore. It is on the left on my PC.

You have to have a restore point set up already. You should see a calendar which will identify restore points for you. Take a guess as to when the virus came in, and restore to a point before that.

Good luck!

I was just going to system restore the whole thing, because it worked the last time I had a killer virus that was destroying my computer, but I'll just follow what the symantec site says and I'll also run AVG while I'm running it just to make sure I'm getting everything. Thanks for all the help!
