I don't understand what's "gone". You believe you've cleared yourself from
infection, but things are still slow? Then I'd have you read this article:

Your anti-virus and anti-spyware programs are gone? Reinstall them.

My computer started shutting down on its own after about 5 minutes. I was able to download an antivirus software that I bought from office depot and when it said restart, it shut down again but now it won't come on at all. It sounds like it is running and one green light lights up but that is it. WHAT DO I DO, PLZ HELP.
Posted by: Josh at June 13, 2008 1:05 PMHello,
I got some Trojan Viruses by email, machine would not even boot up, ran system recovery instead of system restore.
Can I go back and run system restore now.
Posted by: JL at August 28, 2008 10:53 AMI think I may be virused - very odd things have been happening, though I used AVG and other products!
Basically opening files seems to take much longer, and every time I open a folder the system hangs slightly. This never happened before, I got the system built to spec so I could do plenty of photo and music editing! I am running windows XP as well.
ALso folders on the desktop seem to just go missing. My concern is that nothing seems to pick up anything wrong - is there any way I can check for sure I am being virused and are the steps there what you would reccomend in this instance?
Thank you!
Mr.Will
