I ran AVG Free 4.7 and Ad-Aware SE (both fully updated) while in safe mode and everything came back fine. It can't be fine though because im getting that pop up every 30 seconds!
Do any of you know how I can get rid of this when I can't open up the task manager and every anti virus/spyware program ive tried comes back clean? |

Monkeyboy, that didn't work :'( And I tried AVG 7 Pro a few seconds ago and it didn't pick anything up either.
Also, I have ZoneAlarm firewall running at all times in addition to my router's firewall. |

Points: 491.70 Donate | | | Ok then, Do what I did when I had that prob, do a system restore, go back to when you definatly know it worked, thats what I did, and it worked, after that I got rid of any remainders of the virus with XoftSpy, AVG, and Adware SE..
Just out of curiosity, did this happen after using a RealArcade Game Unprotector?, thats what I used when it fucked up |
