Ok, yesterday I think a virus got onto my computer. Windows Defender found a trojan in Win32, TrojanDownloader:Win32/Renos.JM, and it has come up 3 or 4 times even though I have clicked remove.
One thing I have noticed is that when opening google chrome, it says the page is unresponsive. Another problem is that MSN Messenger signs out after 5-10 seconds of being signed in.
Internet Explore is working fine, although its slow as it always has been, and that is where I am posting this from.
I have checked my firewall settings and they are both listed as exceptions.
I have posted results of a complete slow scan from AVG 8. The Renos notification will be ss'd when it comes up again.
Help please!
The road I cruise is a bitch now, baby.

Thank you, I will try that immediately.
I am now in Safe Mode.
AVG just opens up a CMD promt thing when I press 'scan now' and that goes away after a few seconds.
I am currently running a full scan with Defender, though.
Windows defender, in safe mode, found nothing. WHAT? Booting regularly, the virus still shows up. I am having the same problems, and the virus even left me some porn on my desktop.
Another question, if I transfer data to another computer, will the virus go along with it? How about if I sync my iPod?

iPod = unlikely.
Keep only certain files. Don't keep EXEs, or DLLs. I'd be careful of certain other file types known to be able to carry viruses, microsoft office documents, for example, can contain them in macro form.
If you do copy everything, run every scanner in existence on everything.

Supporters of Proposition 8 will argue California does not discriminate against gays, as the current law allows them to get married - as long as they wed a partner of the opposite sex.

Use Sandboxie to run files inside a virtual sandbox. The application doesn't seem to work with Windows 7 yet.
