there is probably well over 1000 pos tmp files in my C drive and my C drive logo is a big red x, I had these files in my documents as well and deleted them but obviously the problem didnt go away. It has also made it so I cannot change my background image, I mean thats just a minor thing but even still its annoying. Also when I turn my computer on sometimes a DOS window pops up and then an error message saying that I cannot run DOS pops up. I just finished running spybot and it found the following:
Win32.Winlagons.co
Smitfraud-C.CoreService
Virtumonde.dll
Virtumonde
Virtumonde.prx
Virtumonde.sci
So please let me know what I can do to get rid of these files because spybot cannot get rid of them all and also doesnt get rid of the pos tmp files.
Thank you
