BleepingComputer.com: Hello!

Hi everyone!

My name's Henry and my online username would usually be 'Transit' but that's taken, so... yeah. (I still prefer to be called Transit, though) I got to know this forum through Symantec (wonder if it rings a bell to you) when I was browsing through their forum for solutions to computer malware, spyware and keyloggers.

More about me? Mostly on my computer to chat and read technology news (like the new iPhone 4), play games like Warcraft III and anything that seems interesting. I play online games and usually spend money on them and I've been 'hacked' twice in a row. Feeling pissed, I'm going to step up my computer's security and learn a thing or two from BleepingComputer and maybe help my friends.

To be honest, this place is like heaven to me. After viewing a few threads in the malware removal forum, I've noticed that the staff here are ready to help when people are desperate of help — really efficient!

So, what's the thing I'm looking forward to? Being able to do a clean backup of my computer; but I'm not too sure whether if my computer is considered clean, yet. I've been searching up and down for step-by-step tutorials to ensure that the computer is clean and removed of all known trojans, malwares, spywares, well, just anything unclean but I still can't find one. (If you know of one, tell me!)

Thanks,
Transit
