    Default NEED HELP...

    As the title states I really need help with my computer. I dont know what happened last night when i was downloading a DVD ripper and somehow i got all these spyware, adware, trojans out of nowhere. I restore my comp to the previous day but I am still getting popups and things of the such. I ran a antispyware program but its not picking anything up. I also have something called webHancer in my program files that I cannot delete cuz its .dll file is being used. I restored the comp in safe mode.

    Adware, spybot search & destroy, and norton should do the trick...Un-plug your internet to work on it...that should slow down the pop ups and what not.

    I have a friend that can do the whole reformatting the hard drive, deleting the partition, and making a new one. I wanted to see if there was anything I could do without getting my laptop redone. I system recovered to a day before it happened. I guess I can system recover again to a month before.

    Well if you go in and look at the processes that are causing all of the pop ups and what not you can track them down and get rid of them...plus you would need to make sure that no one was connecting remotely to your machine using the trojins...then you would need to run all the anti virus and anti spyware program just to be sure they are gone....
