I was putzing around on my backup laptop (thankfully) and I ended up reading something on Encyclopedia Dramatica and I got nailed with a Trojan.
I did a little google search and I am reading nothing but bad things. It seems to be a clever little minks being able to take out antivirus software and spybot S&D. Also the Wiki page warned against doing a Hijackthis because it can apparently destroy everything forcing a Reformat Reinstall.
The last thing I want is to have to R/R but if I must I must.
I remember one of the users (A mod, I think) had a virus removal script and I was wondering if that might work for this particular. Otherwise what other options do I have?
Thanks all.
