Since I've started medical school I've been subjected to e-mail virus's due to their grossly unsafe server practices. Despite my best efforts to protect myself with ZONE ALARM, AD AWARE and NAV I've failed.
Now, in addition to my computer loading the damn system32 folder every time I boot up (and no, it's not in my startup folder- I'm not computer illiterate), I get these random "dwn" alert messages that when I click OK (cause it's my only choice) it brings up a second box that says "end" which I have to click ok. This happens once or twice.
I've googled the problem but haven't really come up with a solution. Did some searches throughout my file system for key words "dwn" and even run a small handfull of trojan cleaners.
Any of you hardcore programmers know how I can get rid of these annoyances or what the hell is going on?
thanks!
