Windows Logs in... Then out!

Erik5388
Whether it is the Normal State or Safe Mode, I log in and seconds later I'm logged out. I figured it could be a possible corrupted sys32 file. So I used my windows CD and copied over userinit. exe or wsaupdater.

Have you seen this new threat yet? spywarebot?

tschrock
I found some posts online about a new spyware threat called spywarebot. It looks like it could be a spy falcon / spy sheriff / spyware quake variant - I think. I have not had the chance to infect our test system with it yet, so I thought I would ask if any of you have been hit with this or know someone who has been.

Hi. I think I've picked up a virus or something (my computer not me!) I'll be scrolling or typing and the screen will freeze up to a minute or so and then unfreeze. It's happening every few minutes now and even when I'm not online.

IE7 hijacked

brothershamass
Hello, Whenever I seach with goggle if I click the link it gets diverted to ramdom sites. Normally other unheard of search engines sometimes to hard core filth. Any ideas how I can stop being diverted? I mean the filths ok, the seach engines are almost unbearable.

There's a problem with my pc where it says I have a problem with one of my hard drives and it runs a chkdsk check everytime I turn on my pc. Whilst running chkdsk, it stops at 93% and then stays like that for 5-10 mins and then brings me onto my desktop.

Unable to install patches

jmmijo
Hmm, seems that my brother has been infected with malware to the extent that some of this crap can't be removed with Spybot nor even Adaware PE The other annoying thing is that I can't install any of the latest security patches for the OS, XP Home as when I attempt to install them the machine spontaneously reboots ...
