i clicked on a link last night on aim. it was a fake link from that said it was a picture. i clicked the link cause it was from my step sister, but realy it was some sort of virus. after clicking the link, it sent the same link to everyone on my buddy list. and it has been doing it randomly since then.

today, my computer has been restarting randomly about every 20 minutes or so. i dont know if it has to do with that ^^^ or not??? can someone please HELP ME!!

i tried doing disk cleanup on all internet temp files, and i virus scanned alot of the C drive. havent found much of anything.

Try going to www.majorgeeks.com and look for Freeware versions of Anti-Spyware.You should be able to kill that virus and as a last resort you can always format your hard drive and start from scratch.

ok. i got it all fixed. bassman3 helped me out and hooked me up with techsupportforum.com site, and another site. i got a few programs downloaded, and i ran them. i cleared out a lot of adware, and some spyware, but the aim was still messed up. then i found a thread on techsupportforum.com, about the aim virus, and the moderators there said to clean out spyware, and download aimfix. now my aim is running perfect again.

and after running adware and spyware programs, and finding some updates for my XP sp2, my computer is not restarting like that anymore.

ya chauncey ur welcome for the heads up. stay far away from any links talking about pictures, even if they are from ur sister. lol.
