Infection.

Scizzle · 02-28-2008, 12:01 PM

Okay so my computer has some serious issues at the moment, it's loaded down with spyware for one, there's a little red X on my task bar telling me my computer is infected, I believe it's process name is rundll33.exe, because when i close it, it comes right back up.
This has branced off to many other spyware and malware and what not.. Now the second problem is, half of the anti-spyware programs I've downloaded wont open, mainly AVG and Norton, however I can get Ad-Aware 2007 to work, and it scans and removes, but that doesnt seem to fix the problem, I cant exactly pinpoint the specific spyware issue, I would appreciate someone to walk me through this.
