How screwed am I?
 

My daughter was on the web last night and suddenly WinPatrol popped up with a warning and Windows popped up that spyware was on the puter. It appears that a new system32 file was installed and it will not allow me to run spybot or download other antispyware tools. It also will not allow me to run a system restore previous to the time we were infected. Any thoughts, comments, suggestions?

Copy what .dll it says you need to run spybot and download it it. Then run spybot again. or google how to get rid of winpatrol

Easy,

Thanks for the help. I forgot about hijack this. I'll try it when I get home. Gonzo, if I wanted a new one I would but I want to try to save this one smarty pants. ;)

One way that you can sometimes cheat and get out of situations like that is to use system restore. It's under Start: Programs: Accessories. Go back a day or two, then run all of your anti-spyware stuff after the restore. Most of the time, that'll take care of it.

Quit downloading midget porn... that'll fix it.....

I attempted to do that but it wouldn't let me click on any other date or time other than oct 13 9:41.

B-B-B-B-But I likes the midget porn.

Dude....midget wrestling is some funny shit to watch.

You don't spend 2000 dollars to cure a 2 dollar headache. You get a free cure.
