| 1 Sue, on Dec 14, 2008 7:14:56 pm GMTI am having a similar problem. No start button or task bar. Am working around by using my desktop which has not been affected. However, when I try to open documents, Word stops responding. Once a get on the internet, it frequently stops responding. I did a OneStop free checkup last night and it found and fixed a virus named Trojan:Win32/AgentBypass.gen!K. My computer also downloaded Service Pack 3. I think the virus may have come in with the SP3 download, but no way to prove. I am now doing an sfc / scannow at command prompt, but in order to complete, I need a SP3 CD and I need it quick, so I thought that if I could find a way to download SP3, maybe I could make my own disc. Do you know where I can download it for someone like me who is not an IT professional. I see where we can download the IT Professional version, but can't find a version that is for individual PC's. Can anyone help?

| 9 K, on Feb 8, 2009 3:51:31 am GMTDo you guys know if after running explorer.exe the virus may still be on the computer? Should I still get my computer checked out? Periodically, my task bar will blink on and off by itself. Reply to K |

Meaning your C: drive is really really low on memory. To fix this problem, I'm not really sure. but i would replace your memory (not ram) but your hard disk memory. (upgrade it) You're probably running at 0MB and your computer needs that memory to run. Only need a minimum of atleast 200mb. That is all the advice i can give, hope you get it working (if you havn't yet fixed it, this is probably an old post) Reply to Chris |

| 31 Rhys, on Apr 19, 2009 10:18:09 am BSTOh I Know That virus
get rid of it quickly before it attacks your computer
When starting your computer hold in F8 and select safe mode
run your antivirus program and do a scan
that will remove it
