AIM Virus, need help.

Post by Captain Cyran »

Ok, I'm a dumbass, this was already known. Anyway, I've got a virus running rampent on my computer. Basically how it worked is I got a message from one of my friends with the message "Hey check out this" the 'this' of course was the virus, but I did not know that at the time. Anyway, this is a pain in the ass bug that periodically will send itself to everyone on my buddylist, prompting me to sign off quickly before it can send to everyone.

Anyway, my friends found this site which was supposed to solve my problems, ran it, but it couldn't off the bug. After that didn't work I uninstalled AIM, then reinstalled. Still there.

That's pretty much all I've done. I've got Norton Anti-Virus corporate edition, and Windows XP. Anything you guys can tell me to get rid of this damn thing?
