Nisage 31 Report post Posted July 28, 2009 Yep, same as the last few times. Visiting family, bad internet connection. I'll be back on monday, and hopefully I can deal with the virus on my computer before I go. The computer keeps reseting itself :( Hopefully I won't have to reboot, I don't have enough room on my flashdrives to hold everything. Yes I have that much stuff :P Which, just in case if I do. A question for anyone that has Opera, how do you copy all of the site links you have in bookmarks and store it into a folder. I can just look into the Favorites folder for Internet Explorer, but I can't find a folder like that for Opera. Anyway, see you all in a few days :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nisage 31 Report post Posted July 28, 2009 Thanks, and don't worry everyone, I'll be back soon :) Buh-bye! And I hope that virus (get Linux) goes away soon.. I hope you have a nice trip! :> What does Linux do again? Cya later, viruses suck D: luckily system restore points saved my pc All of my System Restore Points are gone, I can't make any new ones, and my HP_RECOVERY (D:) is completely empty. I might have to do a reboot, losing everything I have, again (Yes, I've, sadly, done reboots before.) Unless if I can get HP_RECOVERY (D:) to work again, same for the System Restore, then I won't have to reboot. Does anyone know how to fix this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nisage 31 Report post Posted July 28, 2009 Nope, one moment I'm talking with a few friends on an IM, next thing I know the computer resets itself. When I open a virus scan and start scanning, it resets. I reinstalled the virus scan (after trying to run the scan 3 times, I was getting tired of the resets.) I think I got most of it, but I don't remember 1 or 2 things in the Add/Remove Programs list, like this one thing called Advertisment Service. Also, HP_RECOVERY (D:) says it has 1.94 Gb of free space, and yet it's empty, there are no hidden files in it either. I did get a virus warning, three at once. I blocked them however, so this shouldn't be happening. Edit: It also seems to have effected some links in my Favorites, some of the folders in Favorites are blank, of have one link that has no words in it. Never had that error before.

CrimsonInferno 35 Report post Posted July 29, 2009 Linux is like windows, but on crack. You literally say goodbye to viruses. Well, unless you GO looking one, that is. I've never encountered one, never. Hm, polraudio, it took me a month or two to really learn it. When I did, I was a master at it. You can do everything with it, you just gotta use Wine, a free software for ever. Also, its the best out of the three; Linux, Windows and Mac. You should dual-boot it. Linux on one hard drive, Windows on the other. Unless you don't have two? Plus, you can keep giving Linux to your computers for free no matter how many PCs you have. Check out AVG, Nisage. Its free and it works. It blocks viruses for free.... If you want more, either buy it or look for better free ones >.< Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CrimsonInferno 35 Report post Posted July 29, 2009 Viruses took my novel before...on windows, no less. I had backed it up someplace safe, but it was like eight chapters behind....sucked, really. I had to re-write it all.... Tell us when you get back, kay? Unless your already back or you've found a PC there...? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marked 197 Report post Posted July 30, 2009 See you when you get back Nisage. I had the same problem with viruses and get so fed up that I tried Linux. I switched back to windows and installed service pack 3, and haven't really had a virus. I'm guessing it's because of service pack 3, I never installed a firewall or any anti-virus programs since the installation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
