Hello!
I have a major promblem on my computer regarding a virus.
Here is my story (embrace yourself)

I was on the computer getting ready to watch the pink panther 2 when all of a sudden my computer went super slow, my backround changed on my computer to a warning sigh saying that i have trojans and malware and stuff, in my quickbar was a sign that kept saying to open up my virus scanner, and windows kept popping up saying that i should buy there anitvirus stuff...

Well what i did was go to download.com and downloaded the AVG free virus scanner thing.
(oh by the way i have a symtatic {however you spell that} on my computer) well as it was downloading the virus scanner it told me that i had a virus scanner already installed on my computer and that they strongly recommend that i uninstall that one first and then proceed with the installation.

well i kept going... then i ran AVg and immediatly found 8 virus, while symtatic found none...

then after the scan was done it prompted me to restart my system and i did!

now everytime i get to the login screen i put in my password, then it shows my backround for like a good 3 seconds then it either shuts down my computer or logs me off!!!!

this is really fustrating cause i cant access anything and it works with safemode too! i tried using administrator and that has a password which i cant figure out!!!

i really need the information on my computer cause i use it for school and games...

Can you help me???

it would be greatly appreciated
Thanks!

Execute this in safe mode.

  • Please download DDS by sUBs to your Desktop (Important!!) from one of these locations:
    Link 1
    Link 2
    Link 3
  • Double click DDS.scr to run
  • When complete, DDS.txt will open.
  • Save the report to your Desktop.
  • Copy and paste DDS.txt back here, I don't need to see attach.txt.

what i think is that my virus scannes have clashed with each other could that be a promblem too?

Maybe, AVG could have changed the userinit value back if that was infected and damaged it by accident.

See here:

Try method 2 or 4, instructions are there so just read from there and see if it works. I'll be here if you have any questions.

You'll need to burn that small file to a CD for method 2.
Method one could be complicated, I tried running it on mine to access my brothers, told me I didn't have administrator powers.

If you connected via a router, then it should already be on a network the router uses network cables to be able to send the connection from the router to your machine.

Hello.
I don't mean to act like I'm giving up or anything because I'm not, but I will offer you another option here.

There is a decent amount of damage done to your machine already and fighting it off may not be possible, for me, this method would be much easier than trying to get access to boot normally if it's just kicking you off again.
A format would fix it all, and remove all the malware, and you can make a fresh start.

There are some links for guide and reference on formatting here:

When should I do a reformat and reinstallation of my OS
Where to backup your files
How to backup your files in Windows XP
Restoring your backups
