Hi,

3 days back I was surfing the net, suddenly norton alerted me that my computer is infected with 'downloader' virus and norton unable to fix it.

From then, computer got very slow. I tried to backup my imp. files to CD, but freezing often. I ran norton, TDS software to detect the virus. nothing.

I searched the internet.
Downloader.Trojan - Symantec.com

Its like greek to me.

Is there any software that detects and removes 'downloader' virus.

thanks much!

ok, your computer is infected with an ad-ware program called Gator.

first, download this - Download CCleaner 1.39.502 - filehippo.com

install the program then run the cleaner. it will remove any temporary data stored in your machine. this can help increase the speed of your connection.

next, download this - SUPERAntiSpyware.com - Downloading File

install the program, then update its database. perform a full system scan.

then when your finished, post a new log.

Its freezing everytime I open and try to install.

I can empty C drive and start as fresh installation of Windows XP? I have to format it to completely remove everything from C drive?

thanks!

[ECTech]

whats freezing?

try starting your computer in safe mode. this is done by pressing the F8 repeatedly as your computer is booting.

one more thing, it looks your running a Dell. another option could be to update your dell support software to version 3.2 which includes "health scans" and i have find them to be fairly through... Downloads
