Hey techies ! Look I am quite new here i have banged my head against various site but no results i have come with high hopes ! and believe my prob will be solved here ! Look I recently reformatted my computer and installed Win XP SP2 from a fake CD it all went good but the CD seems to be having virus because resident shield of avg free edition has detected Win32.Virut in my computer ! anyways i removed it by going to the resident shield detection vault (hopefully) then i downloaded and ran rmvirut from grisoft which claims to remove this virus it did not detect any virus (i performed the scan in safe mode ,and in normal mode with no net connection) nothing has been detected . now the question is Q1) Am I completely relived of this win32virut ? Q2) Why are all my browsers (firefox 3.5 and ie6) crashing after opening them.....I mean whenever i open firefox it opens fine and works out well but after some time without any reason a message comes firefox.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close ! i have reinstalled it but no relief ! i have AVG FREE .spybot search and destroy ,malwarebytes ,dr,web cure it i constantly perform scans using the above cited anti viruses but nothing is detected, avg had also detected HackTool.EEG but it moved it to virus vault or deleted it ! Now only google chrome is not crashing (probably it is not infected yet) here I am posting my log of resident shield detectionand results of AVG "Virus found Win32/Virut";"F:\System Volume

The problem you are having is actually one I've had myself. Because you installed Windows from a fake CD, AVG is probably detecting the file that cracked the CD in the first place. Anti-viruses are also meant to stop cracks, as well as viruses. Also because you installed from a fake CD, it's not guaranteed that everything is going to work 100%. My suggestion, get a legal copy of Windows XP (E-bay, or Amazon works) to get rid of these problems.
