InfinityDC Posted March 22, 2008 Author Share Posted March 22, 2008 If I install Vista Service Pack 1, will the programs I have be removed or not when I'm done with the installation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exp44 Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 What I'm gathering from this is that the trojan Backdoor.Subseven is slowing down your computer. This doesn't mean you have to reinstall your whole os, don't know where that came from. Try AVG Antivirus Free Edition (which has already been suggested). It's free, does NOT require registration, and you can have it up and scanning in minutes. It will find the virus, and provide options for dealing with it. You can get rid of it that way, and you don't even have to mess with your OS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exp44 Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 Lol Wishdokta (yes I knew it came from you, but didn't want to directly offend you ) InfinityDC if you're running Vista try running the AVG instalation file with Admin privileges (right click on the installation file and click Run with Admin Priveleges - I think that's it) - sounds to me like Vista isn't letting the installation run certain files because of restricted priveleges, running the installation file with them should fix the problem.

Now what do I have to do? Edited March 22, 2008 by InfinityDC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exp44 Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 Hmmm that error might not be as important. Can you ignore it and continue? Try doing that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InfinityDC Posted March 22, 2008 Author Share Posted March 22, 2008 I can't I can only click one option, I don't remember if it was OK or Cancel, but both of them close the window where the error's details are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
