Futurama Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 Ok, this has been happening for a while now and is starting to get on my nerves badly. Sometimes I need to leave my pc on overnight. I'd say why, but i'd probably get flamed by someone. When i wake up in the morning about 9 hours later, my nortan antivirus auto protect will have detected like about 10 incoming viruses. I'm on a router so i dont think people can be sending them through to me, and I close everything bar Azureus and MSN. Anyone got a clue whats going on, because this is starting to do my rag.

Mercifull Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 Is this EVERY time? What viruses are they? I have a hunch its picking them up from the Windows System Restore folder. where youve had a virus and your pc has backed up your dads and backed up the virus with it. try turning OFF system restore. restarting your pc, doing a full scan. restarting and then turning System Resroe back on.

Mercifull Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 Seems to be everytime yeah. As far as i can remember (closed the alerts) they're all trojan.byteverify or something Thats what you get for having MS Java installed ^_^ Most likely they are in system restore. Can you try what i suggested and let us know if it works? Mercifull <3 Suzi "We don't want players to be able to buy their way to success in RuneScape.
