I have a Dell laptop, with Windows XP Home. I believe I've gotten a virus
that has limited my control of the computer. I keep getting a "windows
secutiry alert " that talks about potential spyware, and the notice is full
of misspelling so I'm pretty sure it's bogus. And I can't get the window to
close.
My Macafee expired, so I downloaded free Avast AV from downloads.com, and
Zone Alarm. Since this problem started, I tried downloading a new Macafee
subscription, but it wouldn't load the AV since Avast is still there. I was
able to uninstall ZoneAlarm, but I can't get to my control panel (it says to
contact my system administrator, but I am not on a network, so clearly
something has taken control), so I can't uninstall Avast AV so I can get the
Macafee AV downloaded and run.
Any help?
