Rep Power: 1 | Thanks to all!!! For ur support. Avira was of great help...it removed every duplicate folder on my pc. But virus was still on d pc. So i used RegistryCleaner Tool(RRT) which enabled all the windows tools & then i was also able to view d actual hidden virus files(gphone.exe, yh.cmd & newfolder.exe), which i deleted manually. Then i sighed with relief My pc is clean now & running fine. Thanx everyone once again. Cheers. |
