| 185156 | 2003-10-27 22:21:00 | Thanks Thomas ..but that took me only to the home page ? | amitluis (4153) | ||
| 185157 | 2003-10-27 22:50:00 | On the home page is the download facility,or at least it is on mine?? | Thomas (1820) | ||
| 185158 | 2003-10-27 22:54:00 | Yes under virus protection,says free online scan. | Thomas (1820) | ||
| 185159 | 2003-10-28 10:06:00 | thanks Thomas, I'm running the scan as I type this. I will also perform the various things suggested by others in the posts above and will let you know how it goes. However, I still haven't got my 'alt' key to work and I know it's not a 'physical' keyboard problem. Any ideas anyone ? |

| 185160 | 2003-10-28 23:26:00 | amitluis, the files I suggested that are infected will continue spreading the virus, there's no tool that can fix these files once infected apart from removing them and replacing them, because no matter what, the system requires running those files, and when the system runs them, the spreading of the virus continues. A format would definitely fix the problem, a reinstall could possibly fix the files too if it only uses files found on the CD and does not load any infected files, it's safer to format. Or if possible, boot to DOS and fix from there. SafeMode will not work. |
