Infected with something!

Waaaaaah!

.o.o.k??? WTF is this (Delfix just gave a bunch of errors with the ERUNT utility) Second site (Foolish IT) is way too slow for my laptop to navigate (or vice versa)(can't find download link on the page :snorkle.
I went to palemoon from firefox cause FF was a memory hog. Just like palemoon is now...:fear:


argh

Better

Ok got my system to react again, was totally frozen for quite some time,rebooted and reran the delfix and found the other app on the site, since the internet isn't hogging as much anymore either ..... that's something for very wise people to explain I suppose cause I can't even start to begin to make sense of this whole "crash" scenario.

Oh well ...

So I finished the previous set of instructions. Further steps?
Oh and my second system is still running XP but it's specs won't let me run Win7 on it. Suggestions seeing it runs Microsoft compatible programs I'd love to keep, audio production software. Just get the system offline then?

No further steps necessary.

As for your other computer running XP, since MS won't be offering anymore security patches for that OS your best course of action (with the limitations you are working with) is to use it for offline purposes as you surmised

If there are no other questions I think we are done here. I can mark this issue resolved and you can be on your way, just let me know.

I believe you are right then! Weird experience this and none the wiser but I'm helped so I thank you OCD for all the patience and support. I'll keep this thread bookmarked for all the reading material suggested. Case closed indeed my good man. In case symptoms return revive this thread or start a new one?

very much appreciated!
