| Vista Business | System TAKEN OVER Everytime I load windows into my brand new Sony Viao...I get the same thing In a few days in takes away the admin, I get some weird connections via IP 6 media connected. when I try to release the state it say requires elevation and I don't have admin rights. I always see a protected storage running S-1-5-21-4158074477-3187036503-3076259393-1000 There is many other files as well. No matter if I load windows today, when I look in the directories they will all have todays date. In a few days It has new directories dated 11-02-06. and funny names like WIFEMAN.dll BIGKID.dll savedgames.dll I bought new Vista CDS but im starting to wonder if someone has writting inforamtion onto the CDs or do they get my UUID when I go on line and change my system... This has been going on since 2005 , can someone help stop or Identify who is doing this. Im willing to pay for identification. I found a UUID 44ba1fff-edoc-43do-9df6-f9492ddd6c58 and last how can I load a original Windows copy that I know is from microsoft. Thanks |

| Vista Business/Home Premium/Ultimate x64/Server 2008 X64 | Re: System TAKEN OVER Hello theawakening, sorry for your troubles. You got a weird one. you should disconnect your internet and reinstall your system from the ground up. Before going back online make sure you have Comodo firewall installed, a good AV installed(in your case I recomend NOD32). Spybot should be installed and your system immunised. Also install BoClean from the Comodo people. A-Squared should also be installed. Get the free version. You'll need to download and save all these programs before formating your system and install all of them before going back online. If you have a router, go into it and check everything. If you need help call the people that made it. Free tech support is usually supplied. It looks like you've been hacked somewhere. I seriously doubt you Vista disk is polluted. Insert disk. Format drive. Install windows, then security. Check router. Go online and fully update everything. Good luck. |

| Vista Ultimate x64 | Re: System TAKEN OVER One of the first things to do if you get an infection is unplug the network cable! Isolate your PC from everything while you fix it. |
