mattydfc Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 What it could be, now you've described it is a virus specifically in your profile. Obviously depends on what version of the OS it is, but sometimes Malwarebytes seems to pick up and finds the virus, but then leaves the file behind, making the whole thing start again. What you could try is going back to safe mode, and after running malwarebytes again, going into your profile (on my XP machine, its c:\documents and settings), clicking on your folder, and then looking in application data. you might have to make sure you can view hidden files) You might see a folder with a meaningless name "xxxyjyjyj002" or some gibberish like that. If you can find and delete something like that, then that might help. Also, 35 viruses? What tells you that? Is it a new virus scanner you haven't seen before that is encouraging you to buy software? If so, then don't worry about that, there is likely to be only one virus, and its the "virus scanner". Hope that helps you! The program that is telling you that you have 35 viruses is actually the virus. It's a fake antivirus that is a real c**t to get rid of. Surprised MalwareBytes didn't pick it up actually. Did you update MalwareBytes before you ran it and did you run a full scan? Are you able to download and install Microsoft Security Essentials? Another option is pressing F8 just before the Windows loading screen and choosing system restore or you might need to choose repair my computer then choose system restore. System restore will allow you to restore the computer to the way it was before you got the virus but it might not work. You two are both fucking gorgeous. It was a new anti-virus saying I had 35 viruses and wanting me to buy it. Thanks guys, I'll try both these and let you know. It's appreciated! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks guys, I'll try both these and let you know. It's appreciated! Didn't realise that's what you had, I had this a while back. Started this thread as well, might be of use. I just ended up restoring default settings though(after going into safe mode and taking all my important files off). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homer Thompson Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 (edited) Mail them from your iPhone to your pc,then save them to a file Surely there must be an easier way than that?? edited to add - there is. The PC treats the iphone just like any other USB camera/storage device Transfer Photos from iPhone to PC On a Windows PC the easiest way to get pictures from your iPhone is to just use Windows Explorer, but there’s two ways to go about this: Plugin your iPhone to the computer without iTunes running Wait for a popup asking you what you want to do with the device Select “View Content” Find your photos through the folders that are displayed Copy in Windows as usual If your iPhone is already plugged into your PC, you can try this method: Plugin your iPhone to your PC Open “My Computer” Find your iPhone, it will appear as any other camera would Open iPhone to find your Photos Select the pictures you want to copy to your computer and copy/paste them into the desired location on your PC The Windows approach treats the iPhone more like a file system, but if you feel like it you can also use your favorite photo importing application to pull the pictures from the device as well.
