MSN Virus

[orionmoo]

Yesterday I got a message off a friends with a link. I clicked the link and a virus was downloaded to my computer. It messed it all up, with programs opening randomly, the pictures web address typing itself in the search box (ctrl+f) on Firefox, and I kept getting BHO changes, which i kept denying. Eventually, It ended alst night with a deletion of normaliz.dll which stopped the computer from logging on. Today I have managed to download the DLL onto my laptop, put it on a memory stick, then on this pc, go into the task manager (only way to access the computer files) and copy and paste the dll from my memory stick to the c:\windows\system folder. This has now enabled me to actually log onto the computer.

I fear the virus is still lurking about though. My downloads are going incredibly slowly, Internet Explorer wont open (it opens then brings up the Microsoft Error reporting box, which closes IE when you click Send/Don't Send), and I keep getting another warning occasionly from Windows Defender I think it is. Whatever it is, I just deny the change or what not and then 2 files get placed in my recycle bin, which I then shred with CCleaner. But this virus is persistant and it keeps coming up every now and again (Windows Defender box), and my downloads are still terribly slow, and I have also been unable to install a certain program. All of my System recovery dates from before yesterday (when I got teh virus) have been deleted also.

I havn't got a clue what to do now so I was wondering If you guys could help me. I've never posted here before as i've never really had a proper virus on here that AVG didn't find and delete.

I don't know what info I need to give you, but just let me know what you want me to do and i'll do it!

Thanks

Please follow the instructions in our 'sticky' topic as best you can:
"BEFORE you POST" -Preliminary Steps and scanning with SPYBOT-S&D

Then a helper will assist you as soon as available to do so.

I took some screenshots of the Windows defender box, an IE box taht pops up at the same time, and the file the gets placed in mY recycle bin after I close the two other boxes. I hope you can see this. I'm not very good with pictures on forums.

OK. Thanks for the info. Here we go:

[orionmoo]

Sorry guys for the number of messages. I tried going an online virus scan with Trend Micro Online, It got part way through (I don't know if it finished) and all my browsers shut down! I couldn't use the others because I was using firefox and my IE isnt working either, as I said in the first post.

 

[tashi]

Hello and sorry for the wait.

If you have not resolved the problem, we do have this sticky topic:

If you have waited four days for advice post here.
