I may have been had. A window popped up initially that looked like an internal error. Said to do a scan and an 'WINDOWS XP RECOVERY' Window popped up. Yes I hit scan. and it went through and 'fixed' 6 files but said 5 cannot be fixed with the 'general' fix. I would have to 'purchase' an Advanced fix.
Yep, you been had, ya installed the virus with the "scan".
Go with Unixfox's fix.
See if you can do a system restore first. If that doesn't work you'll need to do a virus cleanup or reinstall your operating system
I made the mistake of clicking on a “Windows alert”, and it installed a nasty virus/malware. How do I know if an “alert” is legit? The computer repairman told me to not trust ANY of those.
It’s DEFINATELY the trojan/virus and it will never be completely fixed. The ‘fix’ will allow the trojan to remain spying on you and stealing all of your personal data such as passwords, bank accounts, etc.
