Thats a virus, best way to deffently make sure it's gone is to back up picutres, music etc and reformat your hard drive if you know what your doing and have the correct disks.

Take care with a re-format. format means wipe clean - ie it leaves nothing not even the operating system and certainly not and files / folders (unless you use a 'wipe' software).

24554.jpg The Wire - It's Time To Believe
When things go wrong, as they sometimes will.
When the road you're trudging seems all up hill,
When the funds are low, and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest if you must, but don't you quit.
Life is queer with the twists and turns,
AS everyone of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about,
When he might have won had he stuck it out:
Don't give up through the pace seems slow.
You may succeed with another blow.
Success is failure turned inside out,
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems so far;
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit,
It's when things seem worse,
that you must not quit.
NOW THE WIRE!:24554.jpg |

May i suggest firstly loading Panda Cloud Antivirus(see link)this is the only free cloud anti-virus it is very light on your system, other anti-virus software, kaspersky and the like use loads of system resources so slow your computer down. The cloud bit means basically when someone anywhere in the world gets a new virus it automatically finds a cure which is sent instantly to all the other computers protecting them straight away, there is no update button because its constantly updating to keep you protected up to the minute, when you have run that also try either spybot search and destroy or Malwarebytes'e, all three programmes are totally free, as i sad before the cloud scan updates itself so no miether were as the other two programmes need you to instruct them to, but its very easy so no problems, good look.

| Spybot S&D should get rid of trojan. Make sure u run it couple of times though.
Format and reinstall is overkill if its just a trojan.

Forget installing all Antivirus software, if you have a trojan then none of these will install correctly.
Usually Trojans are written in such a way that the block new Antivirus software from being installed.
Install a peice of software called Malware bytes www.malwarebytes.org there is a free version for home users.
Run it, repair and reboot then run it again until it finds nothing else then you can install Antvirus Software.
If that doesn't sort it Call PC Doctor 01925 243249
