I somehow contracted malware (I think) on my SP3 XP on my laptop. When I start it, it goes black for awhile then automatically opens in Safe mode. Seems I have lost Normal mode. Prior to lost of normal mode, I saw a privacy protection shield that was scanning my computer. It said Trojan and I think something else. I thought it was the blaster worm, however I did tons of stuff other sites and including microsoft, found nothing. Therefore leads me to think its malware instead of a worm. First it would redirect my browser to info.com. Then it hijacked everything. I tried to download Norton which didnt work. How can I get this resolved without wiping my system clean?
I am unable to run DDS.txt and ERUNT not being able to use my laptops internet. Need Help please. Thanks.
I recently saw XP Antispyware 2012 and it said it was trying to remove Worm.Win32.Kelvir.K So I X out of the scanning and bascially shut down the laptop.
