I've honestly got no idea how I did, but I managed to install some bullshit which hijacked my desktop and screensaver and shit. So far none of my Shit can remove it from my computer. I'm currently downloading AVG 8.0 pro to see how that goes.


If someone could help me out with it, I'd be hugely appreciating.


LINK TO THE TWO MAIN VIRUS PROGRAMS WHICH I CANNOT DELETE, EXPERTS SHOULD BE THE ONLY ONES WHO OPEN/UNRAR THIS

Viruses always leave their calling card in one way or another. :/

Google search the names of malicious applications running in the task manager or any other pertinent info, and I'm sure you'll get a forum topic or something from someone who had the same issue.


Heliopios

This guy's got a randomly generated name for everything associated with it (I only found the screen saver, the exe, another program). They all had names like 'hahsadfwerwtyuk', even a process or two I shut down.


I got them out of my system32 but my computer's still using about 700 or so more MB of ram than it should be.

Ends up this is major shit, it's redirecting all links to anything searched on google to some other spam bullshit, and I can't get around it since it shows up as the sites are blocked if I go there manually. AVG is not scanning, buttons don't respond which I also suspect is the hijacker, and half of the pages on CC don't work for me.



I really, truely and honestly need help.

This may work. When you turn on your computer, press f8 repeatedly to get into safe mode, if possible. Log in without networking, and go to your administrator account. Go into the folder where the files are, and you should be able to delete them. if you cant, that means they are running. Start the task manager and end their processes. You should then be able to safely remove them. If all else fails, use some kind of boot disk to force remove them. And, if that fails, back up important documents and settings to a usb or something and restore the entire xp system. It's a pain, I know, but if the other options don't work its probably the best bet.

I can't restore my XP since A.) I do not have an XP disk B.) This was store-bought, so any restore would have to be pirated.


I've already deleted those two files, but I'm convinced there's more scatted in my computer. It also appears to have deleted any system restore points. Yeah, I'm fucked.
