Re: FakeAlert/Trojan and now cant login
It does the same in both safe mode and normal. It does it in all safe modes.
I thought about taking the labtop apart and doing the HDD swap. Just didnt
want to mess up thier systems. I have the Norton Corp and it didnt catch
this virus. I used the online version and still nothing. I used McAfee and
it found it plus a online Dr PC. First time Norton has failed me.
I was just trying to get into DOS without having to log on. Pissed me off
that is has me logging in when I never did before. Is there a way to do this
without tearing my laptop apart?
