Hi I am new to the forum. I know I have a virus. I can't open task manager, run regedit or anything, and in addition limewire keeps attempting to load by itself which I am assuming is a trojan. I ran a virus scanner and it came back with Trojan.MulDrop.3290 in relation to outlook and ran windows defender which didn't find anything. Any advice would be greatly appreciated ;) .

Type in the address bar Bitdfender Antivirus online scanner. If you have any viruses/spyware it will more than likely detect and remove it. GOOD LUCK!!

mamk if you are using windows xp you should be able to just double click the folder and drag the file to your desktop. If not, you can download this program to uzip it.(just right click the file and choose to unzip here.)
