| No, the virus guy didn't disable the task manager. And you don't need to reformat. It's likely some kind of other malicious software. Do a full scan using bothSpyBot Search & Destroy and LavaSoft's AdAware. As far as I'm concerned, those are the only two adware detection/removal packages out there.

| Spysweeper is garbage. EZAnti Virus is a product I've never heard of. In the system security game, if it's an unknown product, you can't trust it, really, since there's no basis for comparison. My suggestion: http://free.grisoft.com It's a free antivirus product that puts most of the larger commercial products (namely Norton and Macafee) to shame. Updates are free. The software is free. The updates run automatically as long as you're connected. Did I mention that it's FREE? |

The only time I've ever gotten a virus is when AVG was on my computer. My girlfriend's brother sent me something over messenger, I scanned it, opened it, vioula! I got a virus! The only way to remove the virus was to reinstall windows. I've never used virus protection and I still don't...I don't see any need for it. | |
