I WILL Donate money to the site if this gets fixed!!


okay. I have recently been infected with a virus….described right here I have the exact same symptoms as this user (same operating system and inspiron 530), and i need to get rid of it.

in response to LDTate, in the third reply, he says to download a program and follow various steps, and then reply back. For some reason or another it wont let me, so i need to make a new thread about it.

the results the program came up with:
