I have virus scanned with the inhouse (Norton) software plus online Trend Micro system scan as well.

I have no where to put it tho???

I can email it too you if you want????

Run the latest version of [link=HijackThis]http://www.download.com/HijackThis/3000-8022_4-10227353.html" style="COLOR: #FFFF00[/link], and see what it comes up with. The log file can be a bit confusing, but you can roll over to [link=TechSupportForums]http://www.techsupportforum.com" style="COLOR: #FFFF00[/link], sign up and post the log in the hijackthis section of the forum.

Download and extract the files to it's own directory, restart, close all possible programs and run the program. After it's done, go ahead and post that logfile to see if they can help you. Hijack this is a very powerful program, and it's a real good start to fixing your system.

Well not sure what happened with the system but I look at the COntrol panel and add remove programs and WOW have I got programs. Ones that I don;t even know what they are and I can't even un-install them either????


I have virus scanned it and nothing. I can't open the CD Drive, or many programs on it now. Looks like I will be re-installing windows from scratch.

Or I will just give it back to the rental place!!! HE he he he and let them deal with it!

I had that one a while back, Rusty...it SUCKED ]:|

No idea how to fix yer problem, rast... I haven't had viruses in a long time...not since I tightened up security a bit, started watching where I go on the net

I'm not too sure if that is it now. I scanned online (2 different scanners) and also Norton which is the one we have inhouse but none of them picked anything up. But something is odd tho.

From the Symantec site ..."Backdoor.Futro is a typical backdoor server program. Presence of the file Isass.exe (not to be confused with Lsass.exe) is an indication of a possible infection."


They have a detailed description and removal instructions ->

Hope that helps

Isass is the suspect file I think.

Now just gotta find out how to get rid of it?????

eeek Norton!!

LOL true!

Have you tried Control+Alt+Delete to see if anything strange is running in the background? If anything looks suspect, check it at [link=http://www.processlibrary.com/]http://www.processlibrary.com/" style="COLOR: #4778C7[/link] or just quote it on google.
Some of the online virus scanners are quite good too

I like to think that whoever designed marine life was thinking of it as basically an entertainment medium. That would explain some of the things down there, some of the unearthly biological contraptions

OK, I turned my computer ont he other day and the desktop look like a folder (XP feature) with all the details on the left hand side. Now I try and go to the control panel and open folder options and It doesn't open.

Anyone heard of this????

I don't know what it might be??????

i've seen that where you cant do that, usually caused from downloading a virus or some other ill fated bad program

Fish tanks are an expensive addiction

try system restore

OH TOLEEDY!

Get me a screenshot.

Any other ideas????


I am stumped???

I can't even open a CD and look at the contents anymore either????

yeah that is weird....

so it sounds like its localised on your machine. What happens when u right click -> properties -> desktop and reselect a background?

Also try restarting Windows in safe mode

yes everything looks all good and runs all good.

I log onto the computer and also onto the server. I am using roaming profiles and so when I log onto another computer with my profile it doesn't have the folder layout on the desktop.


This is so weird???

I have tried with the right click and then appearence but this doesn't change anything.

Above suggestion sounds good

As to what caused it...did your comp crash last time u used it? Did u shut it down normally? scan for viruses.

right click on desktop, properties, appearence?
