Topic: NEED COMPUTER HELP ASAP PLEEEEASE!!! | |
---|---|
Ok I have a couple of people on my MSN that must have installed
something into their messenger because every time they log in now a auto link pops up. Well my friend clicked on it not thinking cause she has trusted links from them before (we have the same contacts on our lists) and never had a problem. Well she clicked on it and now has a Trojan. I mean this link even looks like a genuine MSN link. Has anybody else seen this and does anybody know how to remove this type of virus? Any help would be great. Thanks. |

Oh and this virus thing has seemed to have only effected her MSN.

I would say that she probably has to take her computer in to get it
wiped off. I have always taken my computer in when i have had viruses. Sorry that she got one. And, just a word of advice for yourself, maybe don't open anything like that. Could happen to you as well. Hopefully it all works out for her. That's all I can help with, Whisper. ![]() |

The trendmicro link that FedMan gave is excellent - i've used it over a
dozen times to fix the computers of people hadn't install virus software. If you have trouble with trendmicro, you can also consider downloading a free trial of AVG, at http://www.grisoft.com |
