Rep Power: 3 | How was the service pack 3 installed ?? along with winXP or seperately ? mainly this prob happens due to battery failure but thought about the problems with service pack installations. |

but i have not been able to solve it yet... watever i got to know about this virus is this:-> this has just attacked on my WINDOWS TIME ADJUSTMENT.. so as to change it every time i start my computer to SEp 20,2020.. because of this only..my License for AVG got failed since its certificate was valid till 2018 only... AVG has not been able to detect the virus too that was updated to the day(28th dec 2008)... now wat i should do except FORMATTIN my computer.. even restoring to previous restore point is not solving the problem [QUOTE} //AVG Full version is a paid software.

Rep Power: 3 | if its really a virus related problem, then the following step will help u. Download Bitdefender2008/2009 trial version ( google it ), it should give u 30days free service, install it update it and do a full computer scan with it. If there is a virus in ur system, rest assured, BitDefender will get rid of it for you. -feedback |

| Or if u could take the trouble, you can try booting with pen drive linux and see if the date is shown properly over there... If it does, u can reformat n do all the stuff..  |
