Hey peoples. :D
I'd like to help as many people as I can, in any way possible.
But To help others, i gotta help myself, firstt. xP

Well, the whole reason I'm here is because my computer got a malware, Anti- Spyware something or some such. It tricked me, because Microsoft Security Essentials found a legit virus, and the screen that appeared afterwards, I thought, was what was supposed to happen. I wan't familiar to MSE. So had a list of programs that it was searching, to see if they had a fix, and i should've been suspicious since Kaspersky didn't have a fix. Instead, 4 anti-virus thingy popped up that i ave never heard of before. Ever. So now one of my user accounts is completely immobilized.
Good thing I have 2 more. :D
Well, I found this place because my friend told me to use combo fix. But like a good person, I read the instructions first.

Yeah, sure, i have a feeling it might be a bit of a waste of time. I got a similar virus, and my dad took care of it after deleting some files in the registry and other stuff. But I don't feel like getting yelled at. XD
Besides, I still want to learn. :D

So Should I Follow Through with Combo Fix? Should I not? The world may never know. Until, of course, you guys answer. C:

P.S. Im not expecting a fix, here and now. I just had to get that out of my system. Hehe, pun unintended. ^.^
