yo guys haven't been on here lately cause of this virus!
so here's how it went....
one night I'm on and I had turned off my firewall, and had only planned to leave it off for about 3 minutes. but sadly I forgot, and later norton popped up and told me it had deleted a file... I think it was C:/WINDOWS/.pif and I'm noticing that my internet connection is going crazy and the system is on idle
so just in case I restarted in safe mode, did virus scans, spyware scans, etc... nothing was found so i restarted again and connected the internet, and it seemed to be fine, so I assumed that norton deleted the file and all that was needed was the restart.
so everything was fine until like the next day, I had turned the firewall back on, etc. and then the connection starts sending and recieving for no reason again. so I restarted in safe mode, nothing found with norton AV, spysweeper, adaware, spybot s d.
and I noticed that adaware seems to go strangely fast... too fast.
anyway running out of ideas and I can't use my connection to get onto CF!!
thanks for the help!
