mattydski 560 Posted December 31, 2008 Report Share Posted December 31, 2008 Snappy, I use Mcaffee at home and work, (60+ computers). I never have any problems with viruses, but i update the DAT files evryday to a repository, and then every computer checks the repository every day. Occasionally i will get ADware problems, I would use ADAWARE or Spybot to sort those particular problems. If you continue to have problems and dont get satisfactory conclusion, i'll send a disk over.. Matty Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SNAP SHOT 194 Posted December 31, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2008 done a scan with the avira softward and picked up 5 virius's namely tr/trash.gen, the software froze everytime it reached the virus, i searched the virus online and got the info needed to clear it, it's based in the system restore mainly, so you have to switch that off, scan again, then create a new resore point and delete all other restore points, i'm not much of a computer expert, but its sorted cheers guy's...............thank's for the offer matty, sorted though Quote Link to post Share on other sites
