    [Inactive] Attention! Spyware alert

    My other Computer has the above messagen from Antivirus IS, telling me it has found 34 serious threats and that I should buy real;time spyware protection. I have McAfee fully payed up protection, I thought, but I cannot get to McAfee to check if all the protection is on, becase of Security warnings saying application cannot be executed and that msfeedssync is infected.
    It also tells me that Googleupdateservice.exe is infected. another window ovrlapping others,tells me that the internet virus could be password stealing,a trojan-dropper or simular, I also getthe threat is Banker Fox A. none of this makes sence because I tried to find out about how much 'full protectiion' would cost but no response.
    Where do I go from here please? Spanner.

    Reference the above from the Administrator. I have resolved the problem by starting PC at an earlier date , so problem resolved.
    Why would I need to attach logs from the computer that is working ok, the one I was using to tell you I had a problem on the other PC the one that had the virus and stooped me contacting Windows BBS ?

    So then why would you even post here? As you think the problem has been solved with a system restore?

    System restore will rarely solve infection issue.
    It may appear to be solved, but in fact, probably is not.

    Attention Spyware alert

    To ADMININISTRATOR. I posted to the forum to try and get an answer, the answer I got was to post logs from the computer that works, I still do not understand why. The fault was with another computer.
    So in desperation I tried System Restore.
    To Broni, Yes I accept that System Restore is no the complete answer, but the PC is working, I am using it now and will do so untill I can find out how to clear this pc from the original virus that stopped me using it.
    Thanks.

    I never told you to post the logs from your working computer.
