Lolz thing is i got so desperate i have tried badgers in both upper and lower case. There is no way i set a password other than the 28 i have already tried. Maybe it locks ya out after the first three but lets you carry on trying just for a laugh!

Tried 60+ passwords in various upper and lower case combinations.....in the end I accidentally highlighted the "restore to previous known worky settings"........seems I missed that option [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/blink.gif[/img] ....so clicked on that and bingo bango bongo it all came back.
Once in I found that I didnt even set a bloody password so why leaving it blank didnt let me do a "repair" thing I don't know...but probably just as well it didnt.
Now my password is admin ...and my password reminder "YOUR PW is admin" lolxzz

Glad to hear ya got there [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif[/img] I also run XP and I'm not allowed to view certain files as I don't have the authority [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/blink.gif[/img] ITS MY F**KIN COMP FFS !
Not even sure there was one SR.....its possible that the antivirus just picked up a .sys file by mistake....not sure. I would run the "quick scan" again but aint brave enough yet. Might leaf the PC on till I have a clue as to whats gonna happen when its turned bacon. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif[/img]
Maybe I should change back to AVG.....can't work out if AVAST is actually scanning for me or not unless its forced to manually.

Ohhh yeah got virus....AVAST apparently cannot delete it.
Its called: <b>ALUREON-FZ</b> (sounds loike it should be a toothpaste to me) and aparently leads to booting problems....gulp!
AVAST can identify it but not actually do anything about it!
Am searching google for solutions but its all written in Swahili for people who know what they are doing!
Any help please and thank you?

Win32/Alureon is a family of data-stealing trojans. These trojans allow an attacker to intercept incoming and outgoing Internet traffic in order to gather confidential information such as user names, passwords, and credit card data. The Win32/Alureon trojan may also allow an attacker to transmit malicious data to the infected computer. The trojan may modify DNS settings on the host computer to enable the attacker to perform these tasks. Therefore it may be necessary to reconfigure DNS settings after the trojan is removed from the computer.
Win32/Alureon may also infect and corrupt certain driver files, causing them to become unusable.

If you are running the free version and i suspect you are! Tightwad! I found that the free versions of AVG and Avast allowed you to set up routine scanning but didn't actually do anything. I had to manually start scans. However this was some years ago and they may have changed now.

My backdoor trojan is gone...and it feels a darn site more comfy without it!
Had to reformat in the end as no one seemed to know how to get rid safely. Alot of the Malware programs either didnt recognise it or couldnt do anything about it. It is not at all bothered by AVG, AVAST ....and all the other virus programs I have ever heard of.
Nice to have a fresh start on the PC every now and then anyway. Just having to search my pea brain to work out how I solved all the little glitches that ocurred last time I started from scratch.
