Due to some virus I am not allowed to use anything on my desktop other than Internet explorer. I try to download other antiviruses and antispyware programs but they are now allowed to run because I do not have the "apropriate permissions to access it." I am the administrator on my computer and It never said anything like this before. Also, I can no longer get to control panel and, like I said, I can't open anything on my desktop other than IE. I went into my computer and checked the program files but I didnt see anything suspicious except a few boxes at the bottom that werent folders and had blue text as names. I believe they were temp. document so I went ahead and deleted them. Other than that, I don't know what to do...
PLEASE HELP!
Bad Virus?antivirus programs
If you can get to internet explorer, then run an online scan - you can try www.antivirus.com and www.ca.com which both have online scans. I'm sure there are probably others as well. Just be prepared for it to take some time.
Another option is to buy Antivirus software, most can run a scan from the cd when the PC is booted.
Bad Virus?computer protection
The FIRST thing to do is DISABLE System Restore.
If enabled, this allows malware to hide in the computer and re-install itself.
