      System restore didn't work for me.
      Hopefully the password change will do it

        then just download it to your desktop...

          With all good intentions your all wrong. Nothing is Free on the internet. What hes got is a nasty little thing. Its not a hacked attempted, its a Resident virus with a Cross-site scripting worm. There are people who hate Microsoft and this is what they do to prove it. Usually comes from hotmail, facebook or the ever so crappy myspace. 3 ways to get rid of it. Downloading more free junk off the internet isn't the way. That just leaves you open to get something else. Nothing is free..... unless you got good buddies who know how to take that off the right way. :) *** Norton Sucks.... Does nothing but eat up your resources on your computer... How bout you guys point me in the right direction to getting an insanely fast boat setup, and Ill share some of my computer skills so you guys can keep chatting away on here and not have to worry about some retard giving you guys a virus?

              I had issues like this before and the best possible solution is this:

              It's a freeware version that works like a charm!!
              You burn it on a cd, it will boot a Linux partition and you can scan the computer. You will have a lot of surprises...
              BTW, some viruses are active in safe mode too...

                I was about to say that too.

                Thanks for the rescue disk link Cornel!

                    Tony Sorry to hear that. I got hacked with the same thing about a month ago, I am sure you got emails from my hacked account. I have been receiving untitled emails from yours, the last few days as are a lot of people on here. One thing I did was change my password on my email account, that helped and run a program called malwarebytes, just use the free version it is great and will usually take care of your virus/problem!!

                    Hope this helps brother.

                      Patrick, sorry for the intrusion. This situation has become fairly common so most of know to not open the "no subject" e-mails. I get them frequently myself.

                        Done deal, Bro. I always find that a kind word, (and a machete), gets better results than a kind word all by itself

                              Gentlemen,

                              Through the kind and expert attention of Matt, [fpsphoto], my computer is WAY FIXED and running better than it ever did. I apologize for the spam e-mails, they should stop now. Matt spent several hours remotely fixing my problems most impressively. He REALLY knows his stuff !!

                              It does my heart good to know that I can go to the OSE forum with a problem like this and find someone of Matt's caliber to help me out, freely and with amazing expertise.

                              Please extend to him all the courtesies and attention he deserves, and rest assured that his membership in our FE family will be brighten this thing we all participate in and love.
