Not ignoring you, promise. Got behind on online stuff w/the comp issues but realized that my other login on the computer is ok - only the one login was infected (looks like th eprogram embedded in that one user profile).
Am assuming one of the kids clicked something to download it in the first place, but it popped up the second I clicked a good link so that was kind of weird.
I downloaded a free trial of Norton and it seems to have kille dhte virus - buit now I seem to have missing files so I can't, for instance, get online in that profile anymore anyway. A friend reminded me about using restore point, which I'd done for a problem a little while back - seeing as I haven't done much on the comp since this issue started, I think I might do that. Any reasons you can think of that that wouldn't work?
