Better: This service creates system snap shots or restores a point for returning to later. Every time a new program or driver is installed, and on a schedule set by the user, this service creates a "restore point" to roll back to if a problem occurs.

NOTE: If you disable this service, your previous "restore points" will delete. If you do not want to lose your previous settings and data, do not disable this service. By default, System Restore Service uses a HUGE amount of disk space to store rollback points. On large hard drives, this could be well over 20 GB.

Hi,

I spent 12 hours yesterday trying to get the damn 'Downloader.Trojan' off my computer. [Symantec's most recent update for this is June 2002!]

I looked in all the forums, did all the usual 'update your virus definitions' in Norton Antivirus, multiple scans in safe mode, downloaded four 'spyware' softwares, and none of it worked!

The only thing I managed to get to work was the 'Trojan Eliminator'! Go to this URL and download it FR~EE for 30 days. (Though I'd bookmark it too, 'cos if you get another Trojan it will save you trying to find it again! ;o)

http://www.alarural.com/rd/trojan_eliminator.HTML

Let me know if you need any help with it. (I don't think it will be named the same, but my exe file was called: xqexwbx.exe and was in the WINDOWS main directory C:\WINDOWS\xqexbx.exe)

Hope it helps!

Kyle

Via Internet!!!!!

Via Internet Explorer....stop using it!

=> Switch to using Linux, like Ubuntu. It is much safer than any Microsoft

products. Microsoft operating systems are faulty by design; they were

never intended to be plugged into Internet. The Linux is a network native

operating system, which takes much knowledge from the UNIX lineage,

which is the pioneering, good operating system. Microsoft's are not

secure.

I have seen this spyware a on work computers also. Police Pro is a spyware/adware program.

Otherwise i think this may be the one where our techs has to wipe the machine and reinstall since it does lock you out of a lot of stuff. But if you can get into safemode, try running the program above. But this might also affect safemode and in that case, you will probably have to wipe and reload the computer.

This website has manual directions to remove it:

However, it does say on there: is manual removal process may be difficult and you run the risk of destroying your computer.

Basically you may have to wipe and reload the computer anyways.

AVG is an umbrella term for a range of anti-virus and Internet security software for the Microsoft Windows, Linux, and FreeBSD computing platforms, developed by AVG Technologies, a privately held Czech company formerly known as Grisoft.

The brand name AVG comes from Grisoft's first product, "Anti-Virus Guard", launched in 1992 in the Czech Republic. In 1997, the first AVG licenses were sold in Germany and UK. AVG was introduced to the U.S. in 1998.

The AVG Free Edition helped raise awareness of the AVG product line.

In 2006, the AVG security package grew to include anti-spyware, as AVG Technologies acquired ewido Networks, an anti-spyware group. That same year, Microsoft announced that AVG components would be available directly within the Windows Vista operating system.

AVG Technologies acquired Exploit Prevention Labs (XPL) in December 2007, and incorporated that company's LinkScanner safe search and surf technology into the AVG 8.0 security product range released in March 2008.

In January 2009, AVG Technologies acquired Sana Security, a developer of identity theft prevention software. This software was incorporated into the AVG security product range released in March 2009.

According to AVG Technologies, over 110 million users have AVG Anti-Virus protection, including users of the Free Edition.

This is a scam. Do not purchase this, and make sure you store no personal info (credit card numbers, bank account details, Social Security Number, etc.) on the computer.

You need to scan the computer with multiple programs for removing viruses/malware.

I personally got a virus similar to this and removed it using Avast, AVG, and MalwareBites.

Still, after doing so, do not store any personal information on the computer just in-case the anti-virus program doesn't detect something.

Answers will vary depending on peoples personal preferences, but I personally use a combination of Norton Anti-Virus and Spybot S&D to keep my computer clean.

The transistor was originally used in computers to replace the vacuum tube.

The function of the vacuum tubes was to regulate the flow of energy throughout the computer in order to answer a function.

Transistors are semiconductors that are most commonly embedded in Central Processing Unit (CPU) chips. These "electric flow regulators" act as microswitches to help the computer "think."

It means, avoid being confusing or unclear. The statement "eschew obfuscation" which many people (due to a limited vocabulary) would find confusing and unclear, is intended ironically.
