What other damage could have been done?


I told AVG to delete all the viruses it detected (like 8 of them)

also try these steps:

1.) turn off system restore and then
2.) update your virus definitions
3.) turn off computer, fire it up and press F8 to go into safe mode
4.) run a full scan of your computer in safe mode.
5.) finally check your start keys in the registry and make sure there are no extra entries. check both current_user and HKLM...

that should fix it right up.

if you have a recent system restore snapshot you can also return to that, it should fix it for you. I didn't have a recent one created and had to do the steps, but symantec blocked it all for me...whew!
