I believe the virus occured when I attempted to download the program Dragon Naturally Speaking 8 using limewire. I was going to download the program and was warned about viruses and it was strongly reccomended that I do not try to download it because it could be very dangerous. Nevertheless, I attempted to download it anyway. Well not only did I get a virus immediately, but the program could not be downloaded. I opted to heal the virus, and it said it was healed, and for weeks the computer was fine. But starting this week I began having problems. Any program that I minimize just seems to dissapear, and I have tremendous difficulty accessing yahoo. I was just lucky I could access it now. But in any case, I need to know if there is any way to get rid of the virus that is on here. I have tried doing a virus scan using AVG, doing a disk defragment, deleting the suspected program and its components and doing a disk cleanup, and doing a system restore. But none of this got rid of it.
