hi im new

I had the same issue, uninstalled Norton's Internet Suite completely, including Live Update, which doesn't uninstall with the rest of the software, then downloaded Microsoft's Live OneCare, this cool software allows you to install it in up to three computer for the price of one!

It protects you puter against viruses, adware, trojans, etc. It also can be scheduled to backup and maintain your puter, and guess what? You can use it for 90 days before you decide if you keep it!

Have fun and happy computing!

Please help. I am not sure if this virus came from Limewire, but my pc shuts down frequently, blinks in and out, runs sluggish and causes my anti-virus to not work properly. It seems to blink in and out most frequently while scanning. The reason I mentioned Limewire is 2 other users have had the exact same issue. The only place we go that is in common is Limewire. Any help would be sooooo appreciated.

Try an alternate virus scanner: AVG Anti-Virus Free Edition

It might fix the virus without the same problems as you existing scanner.

Hello,

Thank you for the reply, however, I have already tried that. The crazy thing is... the more I do (in regards to antivirus software / cks) the worse it gets. I even did a complete restore and it didn't help. I am not sure if a Windows restore is infact a real wipe. Do you happen to know?

Thanks again,
Swill

Open Control Panel/Administrative Tools, there open Services, look for the entries Remote Procedure Call (RPC) and Remote Registry, double click the entry and go to the tab named Recovery, it the setting is "Restart the computer", change it to Take No Action, set the three fields like that.

If this doesn't fix your problem, you should check the CPU and power suply fans.

If you suspect a trojan or adware infected your computer, I will also recommend you to go to PC Tools - Essential tools for your PC and download PCDoctor, you can fix your computer with the trial.

System Restore can be effective, but if you are restoring from a point where the computer was already infected you will eventually experience the same thing.

Good luck!

I have another post going talking about limewire and my concrens with how alot of the programs on limewire are infected. I attempted to download a program and trend micro picked up on a trojan but it could not remove it I think it was called TROJ.VENDO any sug on how to get rid of this I have already tried spyware doctor, spybot s&d as well as AVG free is there anything else I can do computer perfomance has changed since this has happened I have also tried restoring from previous restore point as well as restore factory image but it didnt seem to help

Hi ... McAfee does not have any signs about a virus, trojan, or malware with that name, if you have the file available you may want to go to McAfee - Antivirus Software and Intrusion Prevention Solutions and submit a sample, it may be a worm.

You can also try to run an on-line scanner, symantec or McAfee got the resource for free.
