2 AnswersSoftware1 decade agoMigraine remedies...?
I know that there's no permanent cure for migraine... u have to learn to live with it. At best, its effect can be reduced. So, i m asking if anyone knows something that would ease the pain, or rather, lessen the freq of attacks.. Something that has worked for u.. any home remedy or anything..? Coz i don't think there's any medication available that would stop its occurrence...
Thanks in advance....
3 AnswersPain & Pain Management1 decade agoHow to remove virus called 'system.bat'?
This virus entered through a usb in my system. The peculiar thing about it is that whenever i scan my system using the antivirus(avira antivir), it deletes the file. The virus path is shown to be 'C:\Windows\system.bat'
But if i search the windows directory, there is no such file... Also, since this virus has infected my system, a new process called 'iph.exe' has started running... though the process can be terminated, but it starts again once the system.bat file is run...
It also happens that the virus just doesn't delete. Once the antivirus window pops up and i delete it, the next second the window pops up again... and it doesn't disappear until i restart the system...
Although it is not doing any harm currently, it might affect the system in the long run... I have tried scanning through various tools such as 'ad-aware' and 'spybot' but to no avail...
Can anybody guide me how to get rid of it permanently?
Thanks for reading through my query..
