Well, better start a thread in which I can tell what's going on in my little Paris's suburbs.
First, this month of March is gonna be filled with exams all along, so I won't for sure start any game before at least one month. My 2 current games can still go on, it will depend if I'm in a rush this or that day. Now to the fucking part. I got a virus last week-end !!! ![]() ![]() ![]()

krys, here are the manual removal instructions for your virus. Note that McAfee and Adaware a more than enough to stop 95% of virus'/spyware/adware, etc, but you have to keep them UPDATED, and you have to RUN THEM. McAfee should stay running, always. Adaware should be run at least once a week. BOTH products must be updated once a week (at least) to keep them protected.

I think you got it right, anarres. Your quote tells me about that "services.exe", and that what was running each time I started my PC (I'm now sure of it) ; it auto-terminates each time after like 5 minutes (you know, the Windows crash, and BTW, I saw it taking some good parts of the RAM in the Windows Task Manager). The little fuck installed a lot of things inside Windows folder and sub-folders (easily seen with a search in the Windows folder for changed files during last week).
Now I did what you told me, in the Registry (what a mess, this stuff !). I hope it stops running, now, on PC starts. But I need to clean the PC with McAfee. If there seems to be stuff after that (or more complaints from contacts I have), then I'll just delete my whole HD once again... losing so much time transfering vital files to another PC before formatting... ![]() I have found quite a lot of fake files : should I remove them myself ? Here a little sample of some stuff : I can't believe hackers are so desperate in life to lose their time creating this. 18.66KB Other stuffs are here and there too.

I think I got rid of that motherfucker now.
![]() Now if anyone encounters something wrong that could come from me (or one of my possible contacts...), please e-mail me as soon as possible. It should be OK, but you're never sure. One important thing : to avoid possible confusion (I opened up the fake exe from an e-mail coming from a "sure" address at 1am, so I wasn't in special beware mode ![]() ![]()

Yes, but... yes, but... Can anyone estwing him on the head ?
![]() ![]() Seriously, I received that from a sure address, and that had more value than the weird and short body text and the damn attachment. Won't make it twice. All my friends are potential enemies, must be suspicious... ![]()

I actually got an email form an INEXISTENT email (a typo of my email on our homepage) TO the very same INEXISTENT email arriving at a different email....
the virus collects addresses on the web and uses them as camouflage. So the purpoted source sasy NOTHING!
