Guest kim Posted July 7, 2008 Posted July 7, 2008 Hi, I`m fowarding this on for a friend that asked if I could help with this problem. Few days ago I had a problem in my PC I am writing the details of my problem. My PC XP home sp2 was infected with a trojen, `Astry` and `Rok brontok` now clean. But my problem is that in My computer under "Tools" menu when I open "folder options" & then select "View" option & under this option all the menu items are written in some Chinese/Korean like language not in English language I know the spy did this. I`ve been into the Control Panel Then set Regional And language Options but this made no difference Any ideas on how to fix this? Kim

Guest Carey Frisch [MVP] Posted July 7, 2008 Posted July 7, 2008 Re: language changed after virus Once your PC is infected with a computer virus or worm, your computer becomes compromised and nothing less than a reinstallation of the operating system is going to work. Yes, you can try to scan and eliminate the initial virus, but you generally cannot undo the damage caused by the virus to the system files. You'll need to reformat your hard drive and then reinstall your Windows operating system.

You can try it absolutely FREE for 90 days. http://onecare.live.com/standard/en-us/default.htm -- Carey Frisch Microsoft MVP Windows Desktop Experience - Windows Vista Enthusiast --------------------------------------------------------------- "kim" wrote: Hi, I`m fowarding this on for a friend that asked if I could help with this problem.
