Hi Guys, My PC has been infected with spywares and what not lol..
Nothing works except IE and some other Programs (to my surprise!)
I'm currently using the Safe mode with networking in windows 7.
Will system Restore help me a bit?
If not, give me solutions
(Oh and By the way, Can't scan my PC. Avast = Infected)
No.
Stay in Safe Mode with Networking and google "virus-name removal instructions" and you'll get a heap of removal guides. If not, take Jew Bear's advice:
Backup, Reinstall, done.
Hey , can you please explain the process to me , I'm not really a computer guy so I cannot follow what's written there
No, you need to get a anti-virus system I think and scan and remove all threats. Hope this helps
Your best bet is to back up and reinstall, that will completely remove it. If nit download AVG anti-virus free edition and scan that. I'll try to get a few other recommended programmes when I get home this evening.
We don't know what process you are talking about because you haven't mentioned what sort of virus or whatever you have got. If you are talking about the process you have read on another site.Quote:

Emaressed to ask but what's a back up?
Saving all of your important files to an external device like a USB stick or an external hard drive. That way, when you reinstall your operating system (which deletes all of your files), you won't lose anything important.Quote:
