"If you ever had programs unexpectedly installing on your system, popping up advertisements, saying voice advertisements or playing music, changing (hijacking) your home page (or start page), modifying your search results, displaying search results when you hit a 404 file not found page, dialing out, and so on, your system has probably been compromised by some spyware, adware, trojan, hijacker or dialer."
I ran across that bit of information from a website i found while desperately persuing an answer to the horrid infection. BD came recommended through (uh oh congratulations youve been selected to recieve a Walmart Gift card audio just played), yes recommended from family and has helped them. I was assured BD could help me. Upon downloading, BD did catch and resolve many of my issues, but the bastids mustve been hidden in other files or directories. Where ever it is they are hiding, BD cant find it, yet the pop ups are coming and the Walmart and Wii people are still talking.
Im a normal person who uses her computer everyday and i am selfishly looking for the easiest solution to a most irritating and complex problem, as this is what normal people do. I dont have any of my XP disc, computer registration numbers or anything like that. They have been lost or trashed, so I am unable locate them. Suggestions requiring those would do me little to no good. Dont know how to find my adminstrative password either, guess im pretty sad huh? But am I really worthy of this? I think not.
I have ran the deep scan, quick scan, full system scan and nothing more has been caught. Ive also tried Norton, Microsoft, McAffee and Spybot (seems when i downloaded spybot and it so called cleaned, i had more anti-virus 2008 pop ups in the history of mankind).
I tried doing a CTRL+Alt+Del to see if any funny business was going on there, but all appeared to be normal, but im definitely no guru. I can't do a system restore as once the MalWare infected my comp, it wouldnt allow me to go back to a date that was far enough. Only to Aug 22 which was the day of infection and it only posted times that were after the infection. I cant go back to July or June.
If i could identify the source of the problem, I would be more than happy to post it here, but i cant find it with any software and Im a little skeptical about the ones that said they did find something when not even BD could find it.
I can try to locate the BD logs, but when i click AntiVirus it expands to tabs saying Shields, Virus Scan, Protection and Quarentine. The green bar at the top says no standing issues. Did I not see something or click something?
Can someone please deliver me from MalWare ######.
Seeking Deliverance,
Adrianna
