Help on Computer Virus Attack

Thank for helping me for the last few weeks.

The computer is running pretty well right now except for one thing.

When I open the search box, My Computer–Search, I am getting an error message “Data Execution Prevention”. When I open the box again, I am not getting any option when I can search. It looks like the search option has been disable or not working properly.

On the XP computer, there is usually a dog wagging his tail on the bottom left. On top, there is an option I can search for files.

Right now, the dog is just sitting there with no option to search.

What can I do?

Follow the steps on this page and let me know if that resolves it

Thanks for your help!!!

OK that shows it is not malware related… SO I will need to search for another solution

How did you uninstall flashget ?

Before Flashget crash, my computer freezes up and I had no choice but to shut down the computer manually. Then, when I restart the computer, I turn on flashget, it turns off automatically within 5 seconds. And, I got that error message previously posted, Default.jcd error.

I delete that file from Add/Remove Program/Software under Control Panel.

I reinstall Flashget in the same C drive and another directory (different times, deleted first, then reinstall) and still the same problem.

Not sure it is related to the registry files or ???

Hmm if you powered your system off there is a chance you may have some corrupted sectors

Follow the directions on this page and let me know if it finds any errors

Under CMD

CHKDSK is verifying indexes (stage 2 of 3)…
Deleting Index Entry plugtmp-3 in index $I30 of file 6425
Deleting Index Entry PLUGTM`3 in index $I30 of file 6425
Index Verification completed

Errors found. CHKDSK cannot continue in read-only mode

It did not reach stage 3 of 3

It suddenly stop with errors found and cannot continue in read-only mode.

OK lets try the repair mode

Manual steps to run Chkdsk from My Computer or Windows Explorer

  1. Double-click My Computer, and then right-click the hard disk that you want to check.
  2. Click Properties, and then click Tools.
  3. Under Error-checking, click Check Now. A dialog box that shows the Check disk options is displayed,
  4. Use the following procedure: • To repair errors, locate bad sectors, and recover readable information, select the Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors check box, and then click Start.
    Note If one or more of the files on the hard disk are open, you will receive the following message:
    The disk check could not be performed because the disk check utility needs exclusive access to some Windows files on the disk. These files can be accessed by restarting Windows. Do you want to schedule the disk check to occur the next time you restart the computer?
    Click Yes to schedule the disk check, and then restart your computer to start the disk check.

I just scan the computer for recovery of bad sectors and nothing bad came up.

When complete, it just say complete.

I scan twice and nothing bad came up, when finish…it just say completed.

What is next???

It will repair the errors as it goes in that mode, and no report is generated

Do you still have the same problems, even with a re-install ?

when i am connected to the internet and i load up flashget, it will not work…same old problem.

when i am off the internet and i load up flashget, it will load. but, when one file finish downloading, it will knock out the downloading to the other two files.

don’t know why this is happening??? it always load up on/offline before.

Are you running it through firefox using the flashgot addon ?

no, it detect the internet connection and disappear.

when i open flashget before an internet connection is detected, it will work.

I have never used flashget myself - so I feel we need someone here who has used it to continue. But, there is no apparent malware on your system ;D
