Very Sick PC…..

by kehill50 . Updated 18 years, 5 months ago

Hello All!

I have a HP-PC which I upgraded. I recently installed SpySweeper/AntiVirus by WebRoot with no problems.

My “young-un” was doing his homework and downloading pictures to complete his assignment.

Well, you know the rest of the story……..

Anyway, I have tried to run in SAFE MODE with Networking and attempted to download Adaware. I received the message ” Must have Administrator Rights…”

Uh, I am the Administrator….

Basically, here are my issues:

1. Can I load “yet another” Antivirus Software
package from SAFE MODE and correct this
issue? If so, which AV should I get at
this point?

2. If this is not the case, do I need to do
the “HiJack This” iteration? I have it
installed, however I am not saavy with
REGISTRY issues.

So, I am in great need of help from our Community! Just got “BioShock” and the box looks great…..too bad I can’t play it yet!!!

Thanks for your help in advance!
