I have aquired a virus. I am not that handy with computers but good at following directions. spybot picks up the virus and claims to fix, but doesn't.
It is making multiple pops up. With spybot open it repeatly tells me there is a problem in the include file search_destroy\includes\trojansC.sb , and to see include errors log... I have tried to fix the problem thourgh spybot with and without internet connections, and have all new updates.
We are getting married this weekend and with the family all around some of the pop ups are embrassing. please help thanks.
