Got a stupid virus, need help.
« on: February 13, 2005, 12:31:12 AM »
Hey guys, I stupidly clicked on someone's away message on aim that said something like "BEACH PICTURES CLICK HERE (link) :-D"

So It apparently installed a virus, which I have unable to rid. It has somehow messed with my active X settings so that norton or any other program is able to use active x. Here are some screenshots:

I deleted the files that were displayed on the first screenshot by hand because the program was unable to. Then I uninstalled all of Java systems in Add/Remove Programs. This hasn't helped me so far and I'm at a loss for what to do. All I need it to be able to get Norton running. I also tried safe mode to no avail.

I got it in the first place because I had just logged out of a game and had disabled Norton auto-protect. Bah.

ANY help is appreciated.
