iBotPeaches Posted March 7, 2009 Report Posted March 7, 2009 On Monday (Last Monday). I was coding in the "zone" so I was clicking really fast copying some code from online, then posting in my program trying to learn how they worked. I was using a proxy and browsing slip's site to learn more about his advance vB stuff. The proxy I had been using must have pop uped one of those ads that looks like "My computer" and that its scanning it. However, I didn't look at the screen and clicked it. Instantly my background changed to "CLICK HERE SCAN NOW" and my icons shadow went away, and like 10 new things appeared in my system tray. Then my computer turned off from Windows Defender and AVG (Only virus protection) freaking out. I went to school and googled it and learned that "W32: Virut" only fix was either reformat or find a way to re-transfer all those system EXE's and DLL's that it corrupted. I tried and failed, then went out of town where I currently am. I hope to get home, and reinstall my windows over my current edition without losing my files (Especially my source to my 2 current apps) Sorry I've been gone, trying to fix it. I have no explorer.exe so its very difficult to do things. I'm thinking of putting an explorer.exe on a flash drive and running it, but task manager is somehow disabled even though I'm the only administrator account.
Random1225 Posted March 7, 2009 Report Posted March 7, 2009 That happened to me just a couple days ago, but I closed it because I was like "wtf why does firefox have a page that looks like my documents and it's scanning?"
T3A guy Posted March 7, 2009 Report Posted March 7, 2009 What is the difference between a virut and virus?
Random1225 Posted March 7, 2009 Report Posted March 7, 2009 What is the difference between a virut and virus?Maybe it'd a typo?
Lockon Posted March 7, 2009 Report Posted March 7, 2009 What is the difference between a virut and virus?W32.Virut.A is a virus that infects executable files and opens a back door on TCP port 65520 by connecting to a predefined IRC server.and that sucks
