I have a REALLY bad virus on my computer. I had to purge the memory and reinstall windows, but it's still there. Now it sends the comp into a low energy mode like condition every 5 to 10 minutes but the computer's running. I've tested running music then letting it go into that condition, and i can hear the music, so it's running but without any contact with the monitor. AVG wont work, i cant start it and the tray icon cant contact the main application.

oh idint read it im tierd sos lol.. try kaperskys tour and use a key gen so u can keep it free for one year

Don't try downloading something illegally while your computer is in that state.

If AVG doesn't work, it's unlikely anything else will be able to help. I suggest you save your files on a stick, and obliterate everything on your Hard drive and start again. I can't believe a virus could survive a complete format.

Whoops... Then yeah. If AVG isn't working, then other stuff probably won't either. If all else fails, just reinstall the OS. That's what I do when I have an unsolvable virus outbreak.

I would suggest getting a Mac since they have less viruses, but using them at my school has left kind of a bad taste in my mouth.

Yeah, very useful. But i dont live in an office, you know. They're completely worthless if you use your computer for entertainment. And i reinstalled vista. It's still screwed up completely. I'll call the idiots tomorrow. Hopefully, there wont be a dark vader style force choke ''accident'' over the phone. But you can never know... MUAHAHAHAHA! err, i mean, accident, yeah, accident...
