After putting my PC into safe mode with the internet off I did a scan and found nothing so I rebooted and logged back in....
When I logged in (with my internet still off) my OneCare picked up a virus :dwug:
Trojan:win32/Malex.gen!E
So I clicked clean all and I managed to Quarantine the Trojan
So... Am I now safe from this virus?
Is there any other actions I should take?
Any input would be awesomeee :D
i lol'ed.. False positive
Monitor anything that is using your internet...
Ex. Packet Sniffers (Is that even legal anymore?)
I think I'll just do a system recovery with the disks I have. Good idea?
Nobody replying so I guess I'll just do it haha.
Knock urself out
lol i always restore my computer but just to an earlier point of time not the whole thing and it gets rid of viruses
The person above me lies. -.-x
Agreed. Thats not how system restore works.Quote:
