i don't know whether this fits into the discussion but please help me. my computer has been hit my a virus and i suspect its the blaster worm cus everytime i log in, it starts to reboot. the norton antivirus that my mom initially installed has now ceased to work and i am wondering whether bugbear is involved(?) when I log in, i only have sixty seconds before it reboots. I have tried changing the RPC and have been trying to build a fire wall, but I can't cus the properties functions is not working. i tried a scan from systemac but it takes far too long and my computer reboots before it is done. please help! thank u
