    Believe me, anyone willing to pay 300.00 for that laptop doesn't know about computers or how to recover your files.
    Hey that other genius sold his on Craigslist for 300. I know it's not the best laptop and truthfully I don't care what it goes for, it's just taking up space. Dell did contact me off of that link you sent me. I'm gonna pay the 18 bucks since the comp is 3 years old and past it's warranty. I'll just reinstall that junk if no one wants to buy it.

    It's your Matt. CHEAP

    I'm not saying you can't or you shouldn't sell it for 300.00, I'm just saying that whoever pays that much won't be the type of person that's capable or even interested in trying to find your data.

    I'll check once it's done reinstalling Vista. I found that CD.

    But, is there anyway to reinstall XP without the disk? The product key sticker is still on the back.

    The only reason I ask is because I looked up the standard specs when you first told me what kind of laptop it was, there's no way Vista would run well on 512MB RAM which is the standard config, but maybe it's been updated. If it does still have 512MB RAM then that's your problem. You'd have to disable a lot of to make it run even half decent on Vista with that much RAM.

    As for XP, you'd have to find a copy of XP online and install it.

    make a WIN98 boot disk on a CD (google) and then boot to the 98 boot disk and then format C: and/or fdisk the hard drive. you will be good to go. no data and no OS.

    This new wave of infections has forced me out of retirement. The phone has not stop ringing since August 1st. Back in the day I would kiss the vato that is making theses infections it keeps people like Ducks in Business.

    Funny thing is 98% of the Pc's I see all have Norton or Mcafee

    This type of infection needs special treatment. Your average Avast boot up scan will not completely fix your pc. Somehow the system32 command exe gets ed in the ass worst than a date with bostonguy. I have 3 notebooks and two desktops to fix and these fools want all their data saved? WTF do people expect for 10.00 dollars?

    One vato I told to bring me some prescription pain pills and beer shows up with Excedrin and miller light? this is getting old.

    After this week I will not answer my phone until this infection has left the building.

    ^ It's like trying to tell people in Africa to use a condom it's an uphill battle!

    Well I have an update. if your infected with the "Windows Police" "Windows Security" etc...and many other names.... you will find you can't just open a program or download a solution. the infection disables all that crap.

    Malwarebytes and others won't open properly with the exe infected.

    But you can download Spy Terminator it will...

    http://www.filehippo.com/download_wi...ab9a75fe34900/

    somehow it can get past this pesky . just remember not to X out the warnings just move them to the side. Keep using task manager and end all process on windowsantivirus, windowscop.windowspolice, or anything that says virus windows etc...

    you can also try Hijackthis and maybe kill a few programs but it wont kill them all. The dude that created this infection deserves an award. Probably ex Norton employee.

    after you run the spyterminator go back to file hippo and get AVG it will find more .

    But the bottom-line is unless you save your crap to external drive and wipe out your HD I don't see a permanent solution, at least not yet. remember when you do clean your HD as you replace all your data that will be lurking in the weeds to re spawn itself.

    good luck!

    you might see this at first......








    Go to task manager and disable it....hurry it comes back!




    All future warnings just move them to the side don't X them out.





    Scan with Spy Terminator




    Remove infections

    Formatting doesn't destroy data. All it does is erase file pointers and attempt to read every block on the hard drive, blacklisting the bad ones. The data remains and can be recovered by completely free programs.
