ok, by my admittance im a bit lax when it comes to viruses....just ran the anti virus software called antivir and it found no less than about 170 detections of the trojan horse TR/Dldr.Mohbpork.A.2.

is it me, or is 170 detections of the same thing rather excessive?

its not to bad -they tend to replicate them selfs all over and then get copied into the windows restores

my mate had over 100,000 + close to a million spyware - worst case anyone in work has ever seen by far

not tooo bad..

just make sure you run your virus scanner repeatedly after each other as they manage to replicate themselves during the initial scan, do it till you get 0 found, and reboot windows also before scanning again (might re-appear)

worst virus i came across was Hacdef.c

it stopped IE browser working, also connected to a server and downloaded other viruses that downloaded spyware that downloaded porn without me knowing (700mb) :lol:

it also prevented me using certain antispyware and virus programs like ad-aware lavasoft, spybot search and destroy by removing them from the desktop and then prevented it running without closing it etc, removing it from the start directory

which made trying to kill it a pain in the arse.. had to reinstall windows in the end
:(
