my pc's gone up the swanny too!

seemed to have picked up a virus that targetted my antivirus software - shut it down and then locked my out!

Had to log in as the wife and then reconfigure all the settings.

Went back into my profile to see what did it and all the virus syatems were blank - as was all my restore points (have a Compaq Presario PC) - the vuirus softwares still running - just cant see what its doing.

Called Compaq and they said reformat the hard drive - thats the only safe way of getting shot of the problem!!!

:o

Had to back up all my programs and files.

Going to lose lots I've "acquired" over the last couple of years but hey - at least I get the speed and memory space back!

:|

Just hope the back up's work - theres lots of work gone into some of the stuff on them discs...

I seem to have cured the problem - for now !!!!!

I had a couple of strange programs running in the background and killed them off via the task manager

All seems Ok for now - probably deleted files I shouldn't have - but will be in touch if I have anymore probs

Cheers

I find this always works for me, whenever you come across an error message that sounds gibberish, just type it into the serach bar (google) and the results 99% of the time have a cure in there.
