Hello rhfootballqb12 and welcome to the forums :party:

I am currently doing a malware removal degree so I will be unable to offer my assistance with your malware removal. I would recommend that you visit a specialist forum, such as GeeksToGo where they are trained professionals and will be able to help you. If you do do this, then please can you send us a link to the thread? I'm interested in how they'll go about fixing it :)

In this case just want your help with the following info:

1) Which antivirus are you using

2) What is the name of the virus which has infected your system

If you can then try to install Avast and do a boot time scan and check.

Tanuj, haven't seen you here in quite a while!

I doubt he will know the answer to number 2 as this virus has gone undetected by his anti virus (if he has one).

There's still plenty of threads to go round :) Its a bit strange because we've had 2 of our gurus return on the same day - what a coincidence!
