I’ll give it a go after this feckin AVG thingy has finally downloaded :evil: 83% completed 7 mins left :evil:
9 September, 2007 at 3:56 pm #287225So have you managed to remove the trojan horse?
9 September, 2007 at 4:01 pm #287226Kaspersky and rogue remover where the only things that got rid of mine. hermy I had EXACTLY the same thing.
Mine was avsystemcare, something telling you you have a virus to make you buy it but its a virus in disguise. Google it… its horrid, and a real bugger to remove.
Lucky for me I only got the p orn pop ups at night when the kids were in bed. Daytime it was anything from casinos to tescos and avsystemcare.
Good luck. Rogue remover is good though, completey removes all the nasty cookies for good.
(both free)

Bin the poxy pc and next time buy a NEW one, not one that cost 50 quid from a mate.
