Virus?? Help
hey im new to this but anyways
i think i have a virus im not to sure well everytime i turn on my windows xp Advent laptop i get this message at the start saying 'LARISSA you muppet i own you now you ****ing noob!!!!' kinda goes on like that, and well ive tried to do something about it but if i go on microsoft.com or windows.com as soon as i click on something to do with security or virus scans the window closes, it also does that with the security center 'windows security alerts' i have no clue what to do. Im not very good wid computers. It closes the window when i try to go on hotmail.com, closes the window when i try and go on virus websites like, mcafee.com. |

Is this a Windows XP machine? If so, boot to Safe Mode with Networking by tapping the F8 key repeatedly during the boot process. You'll get a DOS-like screen with several boot options. Select Safe Mode with Networking. Then see if you can run a scan at www.trendmicro.com. There are other options, but that would be a good place to start.

Goes by a bunch of different names:
Trend has it asWorm_Fatso.c Sophos has it as w32sumomc I would disconnect from your network or Internet connection, and follow the removal instructions on the links above.

Look here please
hey ive already made a thread for the problem i have but the virus (if it is a virus) is blocking me from going on it, i think its because i have put virus in the title, please admin dont close this thread down this could be the only one to work.
'Hello LARISSA, are you out there? You ****ing n00b!!!!!!!! LARISSA youre my bitch! I own your ass you ****ing loser! '-S-K-Y-'-D-E-V-I-L-' Greets, N+E+T+D+E+V+I+L' that is a message that keeps occuring whenever i turn my computer on, it comes up from Notepad the virus stops me from going on websites related to virus scaning and virus protection, closing down windows such as window.com and mircosoft.com. the virus closes down the windows security alert centre, i dont know what to do. PLEASE dont shut this down as i cant not go on the other thread i made!! |

i think im gunna die, ive tried the things u said, but again the windows just shut down, when i click on the link they load up but just as quickly they go away.
i really dont have a clue what to do, if i try anything the virus is still there and still shuts everything down related to viruses, scanning or protection |
