Viruses
 

Hey, i got some virus issues, heh , dose anyone here know of some really good free virus scan programs? i keep getting the "send or dont send" error message on some websites and on mp3's , which closes the Internet explorer and dosent allow me to open mp3's :(

Download a copy of BitDefender standard 8.0. It's shareware, but is fully functional for 30 days. This happens to be one of the only anti-virus progs that successfully remove the win32.jeefo.A virus, and a few other really hard to tackle virii ...

Good luck with that.

http://www.bitdefender.com/ <- go here to download

http://www.bitdefender.com/scan/licence.php <- go here to scan your system online, free (recommended before you download)

Another free-online scan (which I recommend you use in conjunction with bitdefender, just to be thoroughly safe) would be Trend Micro's Housecall:

If you look around on Trend Micro's site, you will notice a "Install the Trend Housecall button in my browser" so you just have to click the logo up top in IE to launch the online scanner. Note: Trend's Housecall scanner is only for an extra measure of safety, as it doesn't clean the virus hardly ever, but it is good at identifying them.


:D

I follow the link to scan , click agree , and in the Target Selection box i get "Failed to load interface -- You must have administrative rights on this computer; you also must have the Internet Explorer security settings to the Medium level. " wtf? my security settings are at medium.. and i know nothing about admin rights.

Are you the only one who uses your comp? If not the other users may have disabled certain access rights to you.

My dad probably dicked around with it, no one else uses this comp, its just sometimes i get my dad to re-install windows and he prob disabled some stuff.
