My neighbor had little protection and got all sort of malware, trogans
etc. in her computer. I tried to find by using Lavasofts Adware, Spybot
search and destroy and Avast anti-virus which I installed on her
computer because she had no antivirus at all. Anyway, after hours of
finding hundred of crap through the 3 programs we still had the same
problem with the homepage hijacked and an exclamation mark in a yellow
triangle in the traybar by the clock. I finally told her I would take
the hard drive and scan the drive as a USB Drive and used Norton on my
computer to do so. I found eleven more and removed them also. Vundo
was one of them.
Now after placing the drive back into her computer it seems to work fine
except that the wallpaper only show about a quarter of the left side of
screen and the rest of the screen is white. I have never seen anything
like this before, any ideas?
Thanks
