Do you have Adware, Spyware, Virus/Trojan or a Browser Hijacker?

are you posting to increase your count? you do that again and i'll have to report you. say bye bye if you do that again.
Are you only looking at what i post or are you reading other posts too? You really need to read the whole page before you start threatening people buddy.

I dont know what your major malfunction is but go ahead and report what you wish, I am sure the Admins have a little more common sense than you.

well let me tell you that there is an edit post button, you can always edit posts by clicking on the notepad in the top right hand corner of your posts. most of your posts are one after the other, you could have edited the first one.
there has definately been an increase in useless posts and this has been emphasized by the moderators and some members, specifically darthnip and pop_smith. watch your mouth.

I am aware of the Edit button and it has its own uses, but you shouldnt be talking. Look at the previous page (page 7) and you have posts one after the other too so worry about your own business first. I dont have more than 2 posts in a row at all.
Just for your information I dont give a damn about those titles they put under the names.

Anyway, you are wasting space and pages out of this forum for no reason and that's not good for people looking for help here. So if you have anything else to say just PM me.

I am sure we all can come up with excuses but the idea is don't be too picky with people because they will be picky with you.

it looks like your Windows isnt up to date. So the first thing you should do is install all the critical updates because that's what the worm is using to get on your system. The reason I am saying you should update first is even if you get rid of it now, you will get it again from other infected computers.
You can do this by just opening Internet Explorer and then go to the Tools menu and click on Windows Updates.
The other thing you need to do is make sure you have a good firewall, I saw you had ZoneAlarm but you might want to enable the Windows firewall anyway. Sometimes you need more than one.
As with almost everything you can do this in many ways and one way is to open the Networking properties from Control Panel or right click on the My Network Places then click on properties. Afterwards, right click on the Network Connection that you use to connect to the Internet and click properties and from the Advanced tab check the box to enable to firewall.
Then you need to stop the worm from executing at startup and you can do this in different ways too, if you know your way around the Registry then go ahead and do it that way else just run msconfig from Start-> Run and from the Startup tab uncheck anything you dont recognize.
After you stop the worm from starting at startup reboot and do the virus scan again and it should get rid of it.
Let us know what happens.

Now that I looked at the trendMicro site, it looks like the file is called winit.exe so just search for the file and delete it wherever you see it.
But again it might be running right now so you cant delete it, you have to close it first and you can do this with the Task Manager from the Processes tab.
Or if you stop it from opening at startup and reboot then delete it.

did you try searching for the file?
Making a mistake like that is very rare, what could of happened is may be the worm is not currently running so that's why it didnt detect it.

Do you have Windows Explorer showing hidden and system files?
What windows are you using? Do you have all critical updates installed?
If you're running windows xp select the option to include hidden and system files in the search.
If you open My Computer or any windows explorer window go to the Tools menu and click on options then in the View tab check show hidden files and uncheck hide system files.

Okay, I really do not know alot about computers, other than how to screw them up apparently, so this may be a stupid question. Lately this computer has been having major issues. When I start Ad Aware, it starts the scan, and then shuts down my system in about 10 seconds. Also, Norton Antivirus is finding Trojan.Elitebar, but says that it cannot be cleaned or quarantined. Please help!!!

I ran CCleaner, CW Shredder and Spybot. Doing Housecall now. But I still cannot run Ad Aware. Everytime I start the scan, it goes for about 20 seconds and then causes some type of fatal error and restarts my computer. And I'm still getting pop ups from Norton about the Trojan.Elitebar saying it has quarantined it, or left it alone.
