Hey everyone, today me AND my brother both received the same virus at the same time, bascialy what it does it keeps refreshing windows using explorer, restarting all programs, like sound ect, so you can't do nothing.
I cant install programs, so i cant install anti virus, i get about 10 seconds to access local disk ect. I ran an online virus scan, it found the virus but it couldn't remove it. And i cant install other virus scanner's so im stuck on what to do, and because it keeps refreshing, i can't move my folders onto my external hardrive and reformat.
Does anyone have any advice on what i should do? i only have a few folders i really don't want to lose, and does anyone know where this virus came from? i hardly download anything, and today all i did was play call of duty, So how i got this virus i have no clue, and i'd like to avoid getting it again.
Edit: All i seem to be able to do is use firefox, and even then it blocks me using google to search for fixes, all i can access is my bookmarks (favourites) and that's how i got here!
