Guest kimmeyj Posted October 21, 2008 Posted October 21, 2008 Hi, Can someone please help me? Today this something (sorry I have no technical savy) keeps changing my desktop background to some spyware warning. Even when I change it back to normal it changes it back to that same blue background with the warning. There is a link on it that goes to http://winsecurityupdates.com/?aid=444.568. I can't get rid of it. What ever it is has also disabled my task manager. HELP!!!!! Please!!!!!!! It is sooooo invasive, I hate it.
Guest sunny.it Posted October 21, 2008 Posted October 21, 2008 RE: Something keeps changing my desktop background Hello kimmey, Its a type of spyware. Don't go to that link or download any of the file. I think it has changed the desktop color also. I'm giving you the best solution, Use Avast 4.8 Home edition Antivirus (Free). You have to register yourself for free license by sending mail to Avast. First Enter the Registration key, then Update its database, Disconnect from Internet & at last scan the whole computer for virus. After getting rid of the virus, I think you have to restore some of the registry key also. Hopefully you will get rid of it. Below is the link for Avast. http://www.download.com/Avast-Home-Edition/3000-2239_4-10019223.html?tag=mncol&cdlPid=10888427
