Post by: DeAtH on January 03, 2009, 03:04:51 PM

and wen i try to disk defrag it says "could not start"

i checked my task manager and nothing is eating my cpu, and then wen i try to join big servers on counterstrike or try to run some games it crashes to the blue screen that says "device driver has stopped working properly beginning dump of physical memory"

should i click ok on that free scan? any way else to get rid of trojans/spyware?

Do NOT click on the free scan.

Do you have an antivirus running?  If not, install one.  There's a free one from AVG that works well.  Install it and run a scan.  Here's the link:

Defrag helps certain things, but I don't think it'll get rid of that webpage and that thing telling you to scan...

Defrag rearranges stuff in your harddrive so that the comp is able to find the files faster. It would not get rid of any malware.

Download AVG, AdAware Lavasoft, CCleaner. Run scans with those.
