Some 1 is trying to steal my AOL account!

the way to get past the animated menus, go through options until you get to the one you want. If I can remember correctly it's the # key to go back. Do this several times and that will tell the machine that you can't find what you were looking, and that you would like to speek to a human being.

I have a copy of PC-cillin 2002 that I have not installed on my computer yet, I'm going to install it and then do a full scan of drive C.
BTW I had xp on my computer but I reformatted it and put windows 98 on it so, no viruses from the previous computer could have survived, but my point is that I have only had windows 98 on my computer for about a month.

Unfortunitly A lot of Viri hide in the boot sector and in incorectly marked bad sectors so a regular format wont do the trick... (only the MBR viri would come back, but a bad sector viri would chew up space.

PC-Cillin is still providing new updates but it doesn't help me couse I couldn't find my PC-cillin CD any way. Doesn't that suck?
PS: I didn't have AOL when I had XP and I also did a complete format not just a quick format.

I don't know about PC-cillian, but if you use Norton or Mcafee, then you have the option of making a DOS bootable floopy (recovery/rescue/emergency disk). As long as this is created on a non-infected PC, you can remove MBR viruses - this works for both FAT and NTFS file systems under WinXP.
For example with Mcafee, you need to enter the command BOOTSCAN C: /boot /clean after booting from a clean floppy.

A full format will not remove an MBR virus, so you either need to do a low level format, or boot from a reliable AV floppy disk to ensure you have eliminated this possibility.

Ok you guys I got PC-Cillin 2003 and scanned the entire C drive and did not find any virii, and I have noticed that since I changed my password no 1 has messed with my aol thing since.

lol, no one would have to GUESS it. What does having a profile have to do with your password? Every password can be cracked.
