Hmpf.
I decided to format my harddrive due to several software issues, so I backed all of my important things up on another harddrive. When I was done, I moved everything back again, and started installing anti-virus and spyware scanners. Apparently my anti-virus keygen had data loss, so I went to the website where it's hosted using IE, without having installed any windows updates and anti-spyware. 10 seconds later:
When it reached about 800 windows, I pulled out my connection wire so it would stop, then did a spyware scan - found 40 infected files with trojans and unknown spyware. I did a virus scan and found 13 infected files, most of them critical system files, such as "Services.exe".
I rebooted my computer to enter Safe Mode, then I got a message saying my CPU was unworkable. I booted with my Windows XP CD, and chose to repair the windows files - "Harddrive not found".
So now I'm on a 8 gb harddrive and a 1GHz CPU trying to fix it %-6
Damn I'm stupid. (Khaos shut up)

Well here's a tip: never enter a cd-key or cd-crack related site without maximum protection.
[ Edited Mon Dec 19 2005, 11:55AM ]
I got a trojan which downloaded 4 other trojans, which set up an email server on my computer sending out thousands of spam e-mail every minute. I managed to install Norton, which blocked off the e-mail like in the screenshot.

I would recomend using both Ad-Aware and PeerGaudian2.
Ad-Aware has stood me well over the years and I never have Spyware issues.
PG2 is a superb IP Blocker which will allow you to block spyware at its route along with other 'sniffing' activities by the likes of RIAA and MPIA, etc

That's too late now. I already have anti-spyware stuff, it was just that I didn't have an anti-virus software that blocked the trojans.

If spamming was a criminal offence, d4sh would have been executed long ago :p
