Weird windows are popping up from everywhere, hell included. My uncle calls me this weekend and I tell him to shut down, I repeat shutdown. He admitted to pressing buttons when he knows he should not have. Damn, any help will be greatly appreciated.

yes you're being invaded. it was me, i'm sorry. look at all the prawn on your pc!

Since they have access to your system 32 that looks like gg. If they just mod just ONE file in that folder, they'll screw up your os. Might as well safe yourself and the bad guys some time and format the hard drive and reinstall the os. if you have sensitive info on your pc, do this immediately. i'm not expert at this stuff but i'm certain this is the best action to do...being that they have you at the balls.



oh yeah, tell your uncle to go back to wacking off to hustler magazines.

Oooohhh..

Sucks to be you.

My advice: look up the trojans on the intarwebs, there are usually apps or instructions to remove them. Make sure they are legit or you're just shooting yourself in the foot further.

It's possible to get rid of 'em, but it often times requires a bit of wit, skill, and luck.

should he even spend the time to research them when they supposedly have access to the sys32? they can just fuk him at any moment he has an internet connection, right?

First, you're gonna need some cheezits and booze.  Get good and drunk and full of cheezy goodness.  Next step, find your ban hammer.  If you don't have a ban hammer a 10lb sledge can be used in it's placem. ,ext using your ban hammer deactivate you intarwebs, 10-20 bans to the mobo side of your case should suffice.  Finally get more beer and cheezitz and fire up your trusty backup pron pc that runs the linuix.

Just do it on another PC.

If all he's experiencing at the moment is popups, it sounds like a mild trojan. More serious viruses usually don't waste time gettin down to business.

This is a common malware attack, where it will come up with some "respectable" site and try and have their software fix it. However that software causes more problems. Just get it off the Internet and format it (save whatever you need). That's the only sure-fire way not to get screwed over again. Oh yeah and next time install decent Anti-Virus. NOD32, McAfee, AntiVir, and TrendMicro are all good.

lol a friend of mine just got pwned halfway by this method. he got the baddie program to offer him to install the software to fix it but luckily he called me before he did anything else.

and btw, he got it first from clicking on a fake youtube embedded video.

Never let your uncle near your family again unless he's washed his hands first.
