Okay, for the last couple weeks my computer has been having serious problems. At first, it was just norton pop-ups saying trojan. whatever was being blocked. But then, it got worse. 1st, it deleted all the internet settings and connections, so the internet was gone. Then, I tried to open Norton. It just popped up a message:
INTERNAL ERROR.
So by then, I was getting extremely worried. I went onto a different computer, and was looking for help, and 1 site told me to delete rundll32.exe because it was a virus. I didn't know any better, so I did. So things got really bad then. I was going to just put all my important files, pictures, etc... On a flash drive and then just wipe the drive. But I couldn't drag and drop, copy & paste, ANYTHING to get it on the drive. So I just shut down the computer for a little bit, thinking of what to do, continuously searching how to restore rundll32.exe, get rid of my virus. When I turned it on, for the 1st time, I noticed Lavasoft Ad-Watch said 3 things:
Internal Error: Definitions file corrupted!
User Preferences file loaded.
Internal Error: Sites file missing or corrupted.
So I then found ClamWin Portable, an AntiVirus scanner that is meant to be configured on a computer, then sent via flash drive to the infected computer. I scanned it, it sent 20-some trojan viruses and 10 ad-ware thingies to the quarantine folder. I then tried to restore rundll32.exe through cmd line by typing:
expand D:\i386\rundll32.ex c:\windows\system32\rundll32.exe
And got:
Can't open input file: d:\i386\rundll32.ex
So then I did:
expand D:\i386\rundll32.exe c:\windows\system32\rundll32.exe
Same answer as before.
So I copied rundll32.exe from a different computer, and tried to flash drive it over, and no success.
So I tried to turn off system restore and of course, I needed rundll32.exe.
So I booted up in safe mode, then shift-clicked all the viruses in the quarantine folder, then pressed: DELETE.
They dissapeared, but were not in the recycle bin. I am re-scanning the computer right now to see if they were truly deleted.
ANY HELP ON FIXING MY COMPUTER IS GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!
Thanks
