I'm on a desktop w/XP which just got infected with a virus that has every imaginable
executable file infected. I cannoteven open system restore or the internet. When I do click on Explorer any type in a webpage it just takes me to ANTIVIRUS SCAN website to but the software (yeah, like I believe that's legit!) Control panel will open but I can't do anything in it. McAfee ran a full scan but showed nothing. It is the only thing I could ven open, weird. Even WORD won't open. I have porn, viagra and other antivirus webpages opening up spontaneously, on their own even when I close EXPLORER. A pop up alert gives details, asks if I want to block the attack and I continuously click no because it takes me to "Antivirus" scan. I have had "rundll32.exe" is infected repeatedly. I would appreciate your help in helping me rid this computer of whatever problems are happening. Thanks!
Reboot, hit F8 before windows can begin to load, choose Safe Mode with networking. Once booted into safe mode open the internet and go to http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/dow... Download and run Combofix and I would be willing to bet you would be back in business.
