gnvqsos Posted June 23, 2010 Posted June 23, 2010 When I tried to update Windows XP Home with SP3 i may have got a virus.I have a corrupted task manager that does not display fully and can no longer access the internet.I have run several scans using Avast,SPbt,Mwbts and SAS-not to mention dr web cureit.All indicate i have no virus.I have been unable to operate in safe mode but have been advised how to access this on another forum.I believe I should be altering the registry bbut would welcome some guidance Many thanks John Quote
Dalo Harkin Posted June 23, 2010 Posted June 23, 2010 Why do you think that you have a virus? Where did you get SP3 from - microsoft update? or another source?

macken Posted June 24, 2010 Posted June 24, 2010 A virus from a microsoft update? Like above, where di you download your SP3 update from? If it was the "offical" download then you should be fine and maybe a problem with your OS. If on the other hand its not the offical microsoft download then it may very well be a virus. Quote
