    Default Virus or Malware ... Please advise how to get rid of them.

    My situation is that

    1. My PC (browsers IE & Firefox) cannot access any online scanner. I wish to do this to scan my PC. My current AVIRA Anti-Virus seemed to be not working at all.

    2. Tried to reboot and go SAFE MODE but I cannot. Every time I choose SAFE MODE, the PC keeps rebooting.

    3. Inside Windows, I cannot RUN "MSCONFIG".

    4. Using my Yahoo Account, I cannot attach files to my e-mail.

    5. My directories are seemed locked. From any MS Office application, I cannot move from the root directories (c: and d to sub-directories.

    6. In the earlier stage of the problem, I initiated this RUN command > control sysdm.cpl Now I cannot restore my Restore Point.

    7. Tried downloading AVG but cannot install them.

    8. Tried downloading TrendMicro HijackThis but I cannot get access their website.

    9. Any sites related for anti-virus, my browsers cannot access at all.


    Would anyone have time to help me.

    Hello,

    Did you run a scan with Spybot yet?
    Does it scan?
    Or do you not have it installed?

    Best regards

    Hello,

    You can download our software here.

    If you can't access our homepage then I would recommend
    to download the installation and the update file on another computer,
    copy these to a CD or USB stick and then install and run it on the infected computer:
    Installation file
    Update file

    Best regards
