Hi,
I have unfortunately picked up some bad viruses on my home PC which I am running XP on. I have AVG Anti virus and it picked up most of the viruses apart from 4.
The Viruses are stopping myself from doing a Windows XP System Restore to an earlier date to fix the problem. The virus is so bad that at first it would not allow me any internet access for ages until I had to uninstall/reinstall the broadband modem and internet is running very slowly with a number of error messages. I downloaded Avasti Anti Virus (free trial) and it too cannot fix the problem or remove a few viruses as teh files are in use else where.
MY last resort is to rebuild the PC from the Restore disk when delivered to myself from the manufacturer BUT I don’t want to unnecessarily do that as will have to do all the Windows Updates, Install various software and alot of data (which is not al backed up yet... )
I was hoping to some how fix the virus so that I could do a XP System Restore to an earlier date. I am going to try and get hold of Norton Anti Virus 2005 but failing should that work what else can I do?
Are there any other sites/software that is free that I can use/download to fix this problem?
