Win Fixer?


I did a forum search on "Win Fixer" and nothing has turned up. Am I the only moron who has this on his computer?

Does anyone here have a credible answer to the question "how do i get rid of the winfixer virus/trojan/whatever?" I did a google search, but I am worried that if I follow some of these removal instructions, they will be bogus and cause just as much harm as the initial problem.

Any help would be appreciated....now all I have to do is keep the wife off the internet and from opening email attachments.........

Re: Win Fixer?


Go to Add/Remove programs in your Control Panel. If it doesn't show up there, then get a program (if you haven't got it already) called Reg Cleaner and remove it from there.

Or if you're lazy just open your computer up in Safe Mode and delete everything manually.

Nasty little thing. Everytime I was on blabbermouth, it wanted to install itself.
