Virus
My laptop kena virus. Sent it to IT Co-op to reformat. Gonna collect it tomorrow.
All software have to reinstall. Everything WIPED.
It was a trojan horse that kept spamming anti-virus/anti-spyware advertisements and locking down a majority of OS functions like "task manager", "safe mode" (comp crashes when you attempt to start up in safe mode), and others.
The link below is an article on a variation of the trojan horse which infected my laptop.
Either I waited too long to launch task manager, or mine is a more deadly variant of the mentioned trojan, because alot of my functions were locked down.
I read somewhere that System Restore might be able to rollback and prevent a dangerous spread of the trojan horse, isolating it for further treatment by your anti-virus software, but I'm unable to retrieve the link :( I could not get my System Restore to run either...
