well...
today i got pissed off because my computer gone slow as because of a virus MAYBE..
everything goes so slow... my apps slow down and even browsing my computer slows down.
My firewall (Rising Personal Firewall) has detected 5 attacks today.
its called 'Orange August II' (i have no idea wtf that means)..
It gave me the attackers IP address and I looked it up and the guy is attacking from Beijing.
Everything is extremely slow..
Could it be because I was downloading anime off megaupload?
please help
rep will be given to the person that manages to help me  _________________

Disconnect your network cable and everything that has to do with internet.
Then find the location of the virus on your computer.
Don't delete it yet...
Now restart your computer and keep pressing F8
Now boot up in safe mode
Now delete that file and restart normally.
I hope it helped... |

For antivirus buy Kaspersky or Nod32
For free antivirus download Avast
For Antispyware download superantispyware and Lavasoft.  _________________

kaspersky is much better than any windows security product
i personally use nod32 cause its cracked to have free updates untill 2050
i wouldn't use any other AV than kas/nod though, they are all either very paranoid and give false positives every time you click something (AVG/Avast etc.) or they dont do their job at all and let pretty much anything onto your comp  _________________
