        I suggest next time you get the kids to conduct their shenanigans within the confines of a virtual machine.

        The best way to remove a virus is to format the drive and start again.

            If you're using XP then you should be able to do a system restore from a checkpoint. IIRC, there are regular checkpoints even if you haven't manually backed the system up. I find this is the quickest way.

            Obviously, this will only be of use when using a checkpoint before the malware was downloaded...

              Trend Micro is an industry leader in anti-virus protection. You can have your PC scanned online by one of their servers using their housecall service - it's free.

              When you've sorted it, please either buy a reputable anti-virus software package or if you alreay have one, keep the anti-virus definitions up to date. Oh, and kill your kids.

                  I used Kaspersky and it fixed my Pandex Trojan problem... you can download a free trial version of the AV and use that to rid the system of the trojan.

                    Paddy,

                    Have tried to system restore but unsure when it downloaded will be restoring again going back 2 months. But unsure whether I will still have the problem after this.

                    Symptoms are machine slowing down and appears to crash when virus checkers locate it. According to checkers it is a malacious programme trying to access my information. Virus checkers are telling me it is a 'bearshare' virus (malwarew). Currently running the following
                    stinger
                    avg
                    sophos
                    norton (appears to find it but crashes at that point)

                    Both avg and sophos have found it but machine crashes before I can get to it.
                    If you can give me any help it will be appreciated.

                    Cheers
