    Hi.

    This site was very helpful. I got the virus yesterday afternoon. I did search j0e and got rid of the files asked after I disabled the annoying message in the beginning using start up option someone mentioned. I couldnt find the last registry file to delete..it just wasnt there.

    Here are the remaining problems:
    -the blue screen- I tried the method listed above up I couldnt find it.
    -redirects my search result links into random fake search sites
    -frequent clicky sounds and audio of tv show again when i turned on my computer this morning.

    Is there any other place the files could be hiding? Please help. Thanks!

    So I got rid of XPAV’08 over the last day and now I can’t get to microsoft.com, mcafee.com, or symantec.com and no anti-spyware or windows updates are acessible.

    I do not seem to have rhc75dj0e1an.exe but I have removed it fine. It seems the only problem is the one u get after u remove it. The blue screen. However I am looking at something to solve this. Also How do u open key registery? Sorry if spelt wrong. Please email me holyxfire@yahoo.com if there is anything new.

    Antivirus 2008 has infected my computer and now when I try to even sign on it stalls at the \"Windows is starting up\" screen. Is this hopeless or is there another way to remove this virus. Any help is appreciated.
