HELP!
I have a virus on my pc. i didnt know this until i started
suspecting when my pc crashed whenevr i played games or
watched windows media movie player. So i did a virus scan
and it said i have pate.b.worm or me.parite or something
(samething). It infects .exe and .scr files(explains why
my screen saver doesnt work). I had no problems till i
used the virus scanner(housecall) to clean and all it did
was corrupt .exe files on my pc. but it made backups so i
renamed the .rb0 backups as .exe and it worked. But my pc
was still crashing. i suspected overheating, this was in
the fall of 2003. Then i tried cooling it. No help. So I
removed a ram stick in the first slot. It stopped freezing
when i played games. Now its been freezing a lot lately,
and not just when i play games. so i bought a new ram
stick and tried it(512 mb ram) and it crashes a lot more
now, even sometimes on turn ons. when it crashes, it looks
like power went out..monitor goes black but then turns
back on revealing the last image i saw, but this time with
the new stick of ram, colors are everywhere but on the
last image i saw before it froze. its annoying. PLEASE
HELP! i turned off system restore. The hp company(i have
xp) didnt give me a restore disk..only thing i can use is
windows restore. but if i turn it on, it would get
infected. also, when i go to play games, i cant without
reinstalling or copying the game exe from cd rom each time
i go to play(before it gets infected...it used to get
infected a lot but still work before i used the virus
scanner). any reasons for the crash and how to remove this
worm? these tutorials on the net suck.
