New Bitdefender Install, New Infection!

I installed Bitdefender 3 days ago and this morning my computer wouldn't allow me to do anything but gaze at the deaktop.

. I removed the HDD and reformatted it on a clean (I hope) machine. I used the /u suffex,

removed and reinstalled both partitions, so it should have been clean. After reinstalling Win 7, it now won't

allow the Dell wireless drivers to load.

I don't know what diagnostic tools will run on it, whatever, it will have to be from a card, my witeless doesn't work!

If anyone has any ideas, I'll sure be gratefull.

Christian,

Sorry about my heading, I was really frustrated when I posted it, I'm trying to write on a tablet now so bare with me.

I think I have a Phoenix BIOS bug. I reformatted a hard drive with Kill disk and ref lashed the BIOS and the bug is still

there. I used a legal disk to reinstall Win 7 and a new, clean thumb drive for installing drivers and no luck. All our other

Computers on this network are also infected. I had planned to use the Phoenix BIOS recovery program, tomorrow, but

I'all wait for your advice before I do anything, if you can help me. I don't know what reports I can get from these computers

but I do what I can. Thanks so much for your help and again, I'm sorry for my post heading.

Hi Norm

You can use the Rescue CD to manually remove the infection from your network.

Is recommend to disinfect the machines individually and offline(unplug the network cable from all workstations) and connect them when they are all clean.

alert,select to Allow the application to connect;

. Click the "Create log" button to start generating the
