YAYAYYAYAY.

No on a more serious note. Help. My computer mouse does not work. And whoever is on this computer is checking my history and some other shit.

HELP!

Also talk about your experience with viruses.

I can't name the virus. Will do later.

If it's just your mouse it could be a mouse problem. Just saying.

I've gotten Paladin Anti Virus. Aka scareware. Worst virus ever. If people are going to take the time to make a virus, you would think that they would make it difficult to remove.

Also, I would turn off your comp. Right now.

I think I have a virus right now. My Windows Explorer keeps crashing and so does my Win32 or whatever. Yeah. Well. In my lifetime of using computers and laptops I've had... around 5 virus infections.

If that's the whole problem, who is checking his history?

If this person posts anything anywhere online, you could probably find out the IP of this person. I'm sure there's a way to do that, I just don't know how to. But if there is a way to do it, do it!

At least you'll solve the mystery of the ghost computer.

Wipe you hardrive and grab your OS disc and reinstall your OS. Next time dont be so foolish by downloading torrents.

Hmm.. How do you know he uses torrents?

Torrent downloading is risky but with care you'll be safe.

Mouse not working? Eh, how do you know this isn't a hardware problem.

Good thing my numpad backs up as a mouse. By the way, just follow the other suggestions.

I do have one.

A good one.

But this virus isn't a virus but it downloads the real virus which controls my computer.

Ok, now I'll explain.

I have a virus that controls my computer it moves the mouse on my computer goes into my DLL files (History that can't be deleted) while I'm looking at my computer. It controls my mouse and everything and is dictionary hacking my internet. I can't moved my mouse my computer is messed up and this hacker is trying to get into bank details of my itunes. Whenever I try to turn off the computer (Including force shutdown) it doesn't. I have disconnected my power and took all the plugs out.

The hacker has also deleted everything on the computer. I know for a fact it is a virus because it moves the mouse when I'm not even touching it.

Also, don't trust anything I say. Really, I found out that he got on my Facebook somehow when the computer was off.

anti-virus programs doesn't solve everything you know, just saying. Well, you should get one, but don't be completely dependent on it.

Scan everything you download...........always.


Can you return your comp to an earlier state? Can you try to run a full antivirus scan? If not, time to wipe that hardrive or just bring it to a tech who may be able to help you.

Try out a boot scanner--they might be able to clean up at least part of the virus, enough for you to run other software...

If you can, I suppose you can say, download malwarebytes' antimalware on a clean computer, put it on a USB drive, and run it from there, while being off the internet.

AG isn't the best place to ask for virus info--better to go to a dedicated website like bleepingcomputer or whatnot.
