Zone Alarm and AVG failed me today
 

I am still in the process of rebuilding everything.

Whatever happened blocked me from being an administrator, making any msconfig changes, accessing System in Control Panel, turned off Restore and Microsoft Anti-Spyware and AVG and deleted all of my restore points as well as corrupted any attempt at restoring existing internet access... I finally managed to reinstalled XP and am working on reinstalling everything else... this totally qualifies as sucks.:Oh crap

On a happier note, 6 and a half hours later I am saying hi to you guys :upsidedow

That sucks man, good luck with the re set up of everything, I went through that, I know it's a major pain :(

Happened to me 6 months ago. Fuckin' sucks.

AVG sucks donkey balls, use kaspersky.

mardigras:


hit me up on icq or email

Norton firewall and Antivirus works great for me

Yep, Kaspersky is the best out there.

look in my sig.... there are tools to remove the shit.. FREE tools

I feel your pain. Just went through same horseshit last weekend.

Is there any utility you can use to test if your computer is vulnerable? I have used various software firewalls, but I always wonder if they are doing any good.

Am reformatting in a few hours.

Saved everytrhing to my USB drives ... Will have a clean system .. for a few months.

This is pretty good. Great to tweak firewalls....

I got my corrupt from Russian Music sites .... :mad:

Too late, I'm already in scratch starting territory :upsidedow

I am fanatical about daily scans and keeping up with updates. Whatever this was, it still got me. :2 cents:

As much as I tried to save I keep finding things I can't believe I forgot about.... :1orglaugh

Once I get ICQ or email set back up I'll yell at ya! :thumbsup
