The computer says i have an infection but when i installed spyware doctor, ran a comprehensive check, it said no viruses (0). How do i remove this (P.S. i also used avast anti virus, and norton anti virus, i have also restarted my computer many times and ran the spyware doctor scan MANY times as well) Thanks.

**Fadlallah42** · 07-19-2006, 02:03 PM

im not using vista, thats just a transformation pack, and ive had it for a long time and this virus alert just started yesterday

**Vanden** · 07-19-2006, 02:03 PM

the easy and best way is to format your computer

**Fadlallah42** · 07-19-2006, 02:05 PM

my computer has everything i need on it, all my school documents, everything. It would take about 60 CD's for me to back up everything!

**KINGOFNOOBS** · 07-19-2006, 02:08 PM

well your using Windows XP, what do you expect. delete that vaporware and google 'MacOSX on x86'

**Siouxsie** · 07-19-2006, 02:14 PM

I can help you, if you give me one piece of information. What happens when you click on that little pop-up? Tell me exactly what it is. Names and everything.

**Fadlallah42** · 07-19-2006, 02:16 PM

it takes me to spywarequake.com, but spyware doctor says that, that program is a virus, so im not installing it, a little windows also pops up saying that i have no Anti-maluminous software on my computer which i dont understand why. Anyways, how are you going to help me?

**Vanden** · 07-19-2006, 02:18 PM

o wait that not relly a virus that spyware anytime a pop out tells you that you need antimlware(or a no name anti spyware) it spyware

get

Ad-Aware SE Personal Edition 1.06
Spybot - Search & Destroy 1.4 both free

to get rid of it

**Siouxsie** · 07-19-2006, 02:23 PM

I've already had this virus, conventional programs do not work on it. Go here. Try automated first, then manual. You might need to print stuff off or write it down, it involves a restart.

**Fadlallah42** · 07-19-2006, 02:59 PM

thank you soooo much!!!!

**FLai** · 07-19-2006, 03:53 PM

Here's a really good tip: DON'T USE AVAST! Its a piece of ****. I used to get virus alerts every 2 minutes with it that turned out to be absolutely nothing. It thinks somethings a virus when it isn't. BTW, that little thing at the bottom of the screen looks more like an adaware pop-up to me rather thana virus. Windows doesn't use that kind of theme and neither do any of the virus programs you have.

**Soulphalanx** · 07-19-2006, 04:16 PM

i only use Ad-adware SE and AVG Free

my comp has been virus free since the day i bought it

**Slasher** · 07-19-2006, 06:57 PM

I've had my computer for a few months(windows xp), with no anti-virus and/or anti-spyware programs. I just got a few anti-whatever programs today, and it's absolutely fine.

Avast is good if you know how to scan thing before you use them so you don't get viruses very easly, Even then shecdual(sp?) a boot time scan.

**FreePlay** · 07-19-2006, 09:14 PM

That's not a real virus alert. You've just got spyware.

Did you install eMule, or BearShare, or any of that crap?

The bearshare.exe application is the main application for the BearShare filesharing software. Some versions of this software contain spyware so it is advisable to terminate the bearshare.exe process.

bearshare.exe is considered to be a security risk, not only because spyware removal programs flag BearShare as spyware, but also because a number of users have complained about its performance.

BearShare is likely spyware and as such, presents a serious vulnerability which should be fixed immediately! Delaying the removal of bearshare.exe may cause serious harm to your system and will likely cause a number of problems, such as slow performance, loss of data or leaking private information.

try using a good antivirus or antispyware program during safe mode

then back up your important files, throw your PC out the window, go to the apple store and buy a mac

I hate spyware quake, that thing was arg...PITA to remove.

TPTaylor · 07-20-2006, 10:29 AM

I swear it hasn't been mentioned before.
But spyware doctor (the program you had open) is perfectly safe. The Icon in the system tray is to do with spyware doctor.
The other one however, I have no clue.
