Computer virus installed porn on my computer I think--help!?

Same thing happened to me (Virtumonde.prx Trojan).

You should use Super anti spyware,revo uninstaller,Malwarebytes and Spybot-search & destroy to find the root which could be an adware, worm or like in my case, a trojan.

Remember,you should use all these tools that I mentioned together to find it or it wont work.

You can run antivirus and antispyware programs, but the sad fact is if you have found one virus on your computer, you probably have several. Cleaning the computer now requires you to follow these steps, because modern viruses and spyware entrench themselves in files that your computer needs in order to run:

1. Virus-check your data files (not application files-- you have installer CDs for those).

2. Back up the data files, getting them off your hard drive.

3. Get your original operating system CDs that came with your computer.

4. Boot your computer from the operating system CD.

5. Select the option that erases your hard drive and then reinstall your system software.

6. Turn on your software firewall that came with your operating system.

7. Reconnect to the internet, and download *all* Windows updates, no matter how long it takes.

8. Reinstall your application software, and update the applications as much as you can.

9. Reinstall your data files.

10. Create a limited user account on your system that does *not* have administrator access, and web surf only from this account.

Yes, this is a pain in the butt. No, there is no other way. No, antivirus and antispyware programs cannot fix this problem on its own.

So, what do you do in the future?

1. Never click on links you find in an e-mail.

2. Never open an e-mail attachment, ever.

3. Only download files from a reputable website that you know is on the up-and-up.

4. Never use bit-torrent and other file-sharing programs.

5. Never use an unsolicited drive-checking site.

6. Turn off all java and java scripting by default, and only enable java and java scripting for sites that you know you can trust.

7. Never read an unsolicited e-mail, and delete spam immediately. It is possible to be hacked by reading an e-mail alone.

Please adhere to the 'dont's' I provided above, because you will have to repeat the cleaning steps that I listed first *every time you get infected.* Anti-spyware and anti-virus programs are good to have, but they are a second line of defense. The best way to protect your system is you, and changing your behavior.

Good luck!

0 day an infection, In different words every person can get an outbreak on the day is become first carried out. somebody ought to be the Guinea pig. Antivirus is barely able to detecting virus' that have been out for some days. they might desire to get wind of it in the previous they might write a definition to guard against it. So no count how stable your AV application is, there is the potential for procuring an outbreak

1) no... hit ctrl-alt-delete all three at the same time this will bring up the task manager look for these proccess click them and then click kill proccess next close task manager next look in add and remove programs and remove them use disk clean up fron your tools section 2) boot computer and tap the F8 key repeatedly then choose safemode with networking open browser and go to safety.live.com that is microsoft's online virus scanner run protection scan then run the cleanup scanner it's free...3) ZEROBANK.COM it's so far above antivirus it is by far the safest way to go

Norton anti virus is best.

If you have comcast, they give it to you for free.

This could also be a company that is trying to get you to buy their anti virus

that is messing with your computer.

You need a firewall to block them.

Good luck.

Note: This happened to me and I had to reinstall everything from scratch

in my computer. No more bugs since installing Norton.
