Thanks for the great tip. I have been scratching my head after I had a usb drive be recognised and not remove itself after being unplugged. I run XP pro sp3 and it worked just fine. Cheers

Thanks again Bird.. I downloaded super anti spyware to my flash drive — via another computer — started my computer in safe mode and ran restore. I restored to the day before. All seemed well. so ran super antispy and it unearthed 7 nasties. Have since been running other scanners but have not found anything else. I learnt from the last time not to exit by clicking X I also pulled out the wifi and disconnected from the internet. So thanks again Cheers Damer Farrell

Thanks Bird will try its so annoying. dont know where it came from but it has got to go!!!

me too I would like to know. I have a return of the malware so have pulled the plug to wi fi and need to know how to get rid of it. Last time i had to have the drive reformated. Can I just turn the clock back with a restore. Ctl -alt del dont work — they just flash up and are killed. should I use safe mode.. I cant get in in any significant way. should I boot from another disc or pen drive. Can I load a prog to a pen drive and scan from there. I have a lap link usb can I scan from another computer. Any help would be great Thanks

Since my encounter with “Lisa” as described by fred I have installed Advanced System Optimizer and together with CC cleaner and a couple of other bits I seem to be trouble free ( touch wood)

me too. Lisa got me some time back. I stopped short of sending money but every time I ran a virus checker it kikked it and it killed every other checker I had. I reformatted the drive to get rid of it.
