Advice re: possible worm???
Wednesday, September 17, 2003 by goodmorphing | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
Suddenly IE won't work at all. I have tried sys restore. Cannot access online virus scan. Norton not finding anything at all. I was thinking about re-installing from disc, but if it is a worm or virus it might wipe out the disc. What should I do?
word works, defrag works, sys restore works, netscape works, trillian works.
If this comes through underlined it is not intentional...

Endust is good for monitors, but the inside of your tower should never have chemicals in it. I use compressed air to clean ours but I had to use a cloth for some parts. Plus we could actually pick up the dust in sheets from some parts. It was really bad.

I knew you could do it.......
Buy a can of air (yes 'air'). You can find it anywhere 'puter stuff is sold. Use it to blow dust off Mobo, fans and such. Use a vacuum with a plastic (not metal) tip to clean up case bottom and external fan grills. Put case back together and rock out......
You did good, girl!!

goodmorphing goes off to buy a can of hot air (thinking maybe she can get a job on the production end of that company!).

...um, should I be concerned if that process still shows in start-up no matter how often and how carefully I uncheck it? And now, the hardware is gone altogether?
It is using 27 GDI 2980K memory.
The other process is also persistent and is using 35 GDI and about 5,000k memory.
I have rebooted multiple times.
