I really need help with a few things...

It’s been on my PC For a while and It’s a slimey one X.x;

Well basically, I run my Spyware program (Adaware) and it’s picking up on a Spyware but Avast! also notices this a Worm. So I’m not too shure wtf It’s doing. I’ve been having real bad trouble all night with my PC And I could kill for some help.

Well heres whats going on with it. I don’t know if I’m posting in the right area here or that I’m going off topic, but either way I just wanted some help ;__;

This morning my PC Was running fine, there wasnt any spyware (Minus the Malaware that keeps changing it’s name ans such) and all programs run fine. But I got home from work and my n00bish step dad had been on the PC. He told me he got rid of the malaware from my locals but in-fact he didnt. So just to be safe I ran a spyware check and as I did I got a few trojans and some weird freakin virus with ‘adultporn’ in it’as name so I think step daddy’s fingers have been slipping around here and there on porn sites >>;

Now everytime I get a virus I try to move it, and I get another warning for the same virs, I try to delete it, I get another warning I don’t know what the hells going on with that but it scares the panties off me =p

Anyway, I tried scanning with the anti virus in safe moe, and it didnt find anything! WTF? I scanned my adaware, didnt find the malaware on my PC. WTF? So If I scan in safe mode it’s not picking anything up,. If I scan in normal PC mode, it’s picking things up what the hecks happening? And NOW that I tried to delete these trojans and Virus’ my Mozilla Fire fox didnt respond at all. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling and it still doesnt respod. Doesnt load and I have to right click close it the ‘end prog now’…having to use IE Which makes me feel uncomfartable for some reason >>;…

I remember a long while ago before I formatted my PC After spybot deleted a load of exe files and ruined my PC (So bad it was I couldnt access System restore, or control panel for that matter =/)

Avast found a trojan and It offered to scan my PC Through a safe mode. But it was in blue-screen as it scanned and It deleted every damn virus that was on the PC. I was looking to scan like that again but I can’t find any options for it, and I searched on help but didnt come across anything.

So please, I know thats alot of issues here but I realy need someones help.

Hi Becky (aswell ;D) welcome to the forums

  • What was the virus name, what was the filename, where was it found
    example (C:\windows\system32\infected-filename.xxx)?

As a first step you should schedule a boot-time scan from within avast!

Depending on the location of the file and if the file is in use by a program (windows trys to protect it, dumb windows), so you can’t move it or delete it. This may also mean when you eventually delete it, you may find it in system volume information (system restore), so it may be advantages to disable system restore first.
