How to get rid of the virus

I think I have a virus in my pc the guard screen going red was do I go to to see if there is no virus I have please

Hi carollewis,

·         You have an installed antivirus program?

If this isn't the case, I would suggest that you download and install Microsoft Security Essentials to see if it helps.

You can also run the Microsoft Safety Scanner. Check out the following link to do the same thing.

  • How to get rid of the virus Windows 7 activation key product? (Solved)

    Yesterday my laptop ran fine, I was connected to the House of a friend playing a game online with no problems of virus said. Then when I take my computer laptop home and run it a strange thing happened on start up. He said that the program 'autochk' is not found while he was going to skip this program and continue the startup of Windows 7.

    Then I logged in and as soon as I connected the screen said there have been changes to the Windows system and shortly after that pops up another window saying that my Windows 7 was not authentic and that I need to provide my product key to reactivate. I do not give him the key because I knew it was a virus attack, so I do not suspect that I caused the problem to get worse (at least not yet).

    The strange thing I noticed when using my laptop, it's that when I bring up the Task Manager (I used this to try to find any unusual programs running) my username and one other 'user' unspecified wrote in Japanese, Chinese or Korean (I can't tell the difference on a computer). The strange thing is that I have no problem, most of the programs running and in fact have little or no consecutive effects, but I don't want to let this virus stick long enough to prove me wrong.

    I used several programs antivirus and anti-malware, including my own purchased CA security, as well as Trojan Remover, Malwarebytes and Windows security scanner to find the virus said and NOTHING turned up. I fear that this program that has infected my computer could steal personal information so I have really limited my use of games and whatnot, I'd be worried about this information? If so I would like to know ASAP if I change just in case such information. Finally, I'll give you my card to my system if necessary below to help solve this problem. Thanks in advance to all who help, I really appreciate it.

    System Specs:

    Model: Lenovo B560
    Hard drive: 250 GB
    RAM: 4 GB
    OS: Windows 7 64 bit Home Premium edition

    EDIT: I forgot to add that I do not have a background on my laptop nor can I ask my screen and it says in the lower right corner Windows 7 Build 7601 this copy of Windows is not genuine. I also cannot display my internet connection or battery life in the status bar down in the lower right and can not use my laptop built in touchpad.

    I actually ended up having a restore point system a few days before I got the virus, so I ended up just to help that, since I don't have many files added/deleted my account. In this situation, it is what I would recommend to anyone else that it will save you a lot of time and effort. If for some reason you can't use a Hitman Pro system restore point allows you to find the virus (I ended up using that before I decided to use the system restore). This will fix not damage to your computer, but if you want to ensure that it is safe to do something before you use so the anti-virus software, I described previously, he was the only of what I have listed who found the virus.

    @ Sathish S V Thanks for the help despite the fact that I don't end up using your advice, I was surprised and confused at all first when the virus struck but then figured out on my own since it took time to get a response then I needed to solve this problem as soon as POSSIBLE.

    Honestly, I don't know why the developers cannot offer new features that we can use or not, by choice. Instead, things are forced upon us.

    Could someone tell me please how to get rid of the new menu button on the right side of the toolbar?

    It doesn't seem to be an option to remove via the Customize Toolbars window.

    Computer was hijacked yesterday with "XP security alert" want to pay me to analysis and clean. Knew it was funny. Managed to get rid of the virus (in appearance) and did a system restore. Since then, have been opening several programs such as anti-virus, security, most of the elements in the Panel of control etc. Always can access internet, but only through IE and Mozilla not. Cannot open Outlook Express and need to connect to the sky for e-mail. Impossible to download and run programs as computer application which program I use to open or run the said downloads.  Help!

    It would seem that your registry database has been changed in order to disable the functioning of all. EXE file. You need to restore it, but cannot use regedit.exe to do. Solution: make a copy of the regedit.exe regedit.comappointed.

    Open a command prompt by typing the Windows key + R and type cmd then hit . Type in this commnd:

    copy c:\windows\regedit.exe regedit.com

    ... and click on . Next type:

    Start regedit.com

    ... and click on .

    In the RegEdit program, navigate to the registry:

    HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Exefile\Shell\Open\Command

    In the right pane, double-click the (default) value. Delete the current value data, and then type:

    "%1" %*

    (i.e.: quote-percent-one-quote-space-percent-asterisk)
     
    Close the Regedit utility. Your. EXE files must be start normally now. If the problem persists, or redone surface shortly after this procedure, your computer is still infected. In any event, the execution of full scans with MalwareBytes and your own virus anyti is recommended.
