I think I caught virus from FB

[Miss_h]

I clicked one of those FB things "what song was poplar the day you were born", then it took me to a page where I had to click the "like" button. After that my computer sort of blinked then it was fine, until I turned my computer back on the next day. Now it runs really slow and freezes completely. I somehow managed to do a full scan with Avast, one file was infected, but it was a song I downloaded a long time ago. So I know that couldn't be it. Then I tried System restore. It only went back about 8 hours. That was the only restore point available. So nothing has really helped. Now my Avast program is not running. Please help me and let me know where I should post this problem. Thank you.

Post Here for Malware Removal ... is the board you want, and please read [NEW Instructions!] What Do I Do First? and then other posts that have been stuck at the top of the board.

Once you have posted a DDS log one of the Malware Removal Specialists should be with your shortly. It may take an hour or two, but probably not.

This always comes up: HTTP error 403 FORBIDDEN

Zip up both logs, and post it that way. Mention the error, just in case one of the other handlers get it.

I'm sorry, but I'm not sure how to zip them, please tell me how? Thanks.

Save both of the logs to the same place, the desktop for instance. Click on one file, then hold the ctrl button on the keyboard down and click on the other file. Let go of the ctrl key. Now right click on one of the two files (they should both be highlighted) and select send to and then select compressed file. When you start the new post, if you click on the additional options below the text box, you will be allowed to browse to the compressed file and attach it to the post.
