Threat of virus attack .... " comes... > Cant use regedit > Cant see my C and D drive ... So what is my first step ?? I AM NOT FORMATTING MY PC :))
A: A very good, free anti-virus available to download is AVG 8 AntiVirus: http://www.free.grisoft.com Or Avast! 4 AntiVirus: http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html And for any spyware problems, get SpyBot - Search and Destroy: http://www.safer-networking.org/en/mirrors/index.html Also, for protecting your personal info and files, use Ad-Aware 2008 Free Edition: http://lavasoft.com/products/ad_aware_free.php All of them are free, as powerful as paid programs, like Norton and McAfee, and don't use up as many resources. Just boot into Safe Mode (Press F8 when turning on the computer) and run full scans. Hope that helps.
