Okay, here's the deal.
I use Avast on my pc. I run windows xp on my Dell Latitude D500. Avast detected a rootkit under Win32:RLoader-B. It's been screwing with my system for months. I turned to Dell when I first noticed it. The tech from Dell gave me a number to call, hut it didn't help. Since then i have been looking for alternatives and wqys to get it off of my computer online. None of the solutions have helped. I've deleted a bunch of less stubborn viruses off of my computer, bit this one wont go. Some of my icons on my desktop have vanished or just plain stopped working. I was having a lot of issues when i would turn my laptop on. At first, there would be this blu screen with a message on it, i would have to turn the computer off then back on to have it start up as normal--or so it would seem--it would go to a black screen for options to start up. Normal mode, safe mode, start from a point in which the computer would work properly.
I still can only get it to start on "start from a point in which the pc works properly". It's a pain in the butt. It wont let me go on a.whole bunch of websites when it will actually let me get onto the internet (currently on cell phone). Please help, i really need it.
