ADOBERD9.0.EXE - Avast caught but Laptop screwed
« on: March 10, 2010, 05:22:08 PM »
Hey

I was installing Avast 5 on my friends laptop.

Suddenly I was  ??? by the number of malware on his system

Most of them are ADOBERD9.0.EXE

Can I repair it?

Or Can I delete it safely.

Now I cannot restart after Avast caught all of them

Only Safe mode works

He don't know what is an Anti-Virus or Malware. He has never installed any anti-virus from the date of his purchase.
