I have a virus on my computer that will not let me look at anti-virus websites, download anything and it slows down my computer. I also have a problem with a file called Cabine.dll?? I searched it on google and it said sometimes virus's disguise themselves as it? I am guessing this is the same virus. I also cannot use McCafee, for some reason. And cannot uninstall Ad-aware 6 by Lavasoft. So I am gueassing that might be connected. Can some one please help, the only other option is formatting my computer!!!! :(

It will probably involve several trips to your local Kinko's, Internet Cafe, pr public library, or another site where you can D/L to a USB drive.

I would start by getting a copy of AVG Free and Malware Anti-bytes on a USB stick and installing/running them on your PC just to get an overview of what you are facing.

Formatting the PC is not a good thing to do unless you don't plan on using ANY files from your old installation. If one of your data files (or e-mails) was the source of the virus, you will quickly find yourself back where you started.
