There's a reason I got out of the computer biz.
There's a reason I try to keep my trap shut when people complain about their computers running slow, or having a virus, or whatever.
There's a reason I need one of those "No, I will not fix your computer" t-shirts.
However, I got suckered into it, again, and am currently watching malwarebytes running merrily on a friend's computer.
So far, 63,000 objects scanned, and 221 infections.
After malwarebytes has done its stuff, I'll go over it with ad-aware, and update the AVG as well. Then I'll install firefox. again. because God only knows what happened to the last install I did of it, which was last time I brought this machine home.
I note on the desktop there's Google Chrome, and Safari, but clearly they've all been using IE, as that's where most of the infections were detected.
Spybot search and destroy is busily chucking up notifications every few minutes as well. (sigh).
yep, there's a reason I got out of the computer biz.
