[QUOTE="Aussassin123, post: 550128, member: 55874"] This virus came on to my computer technically on purpose, it was a trojan but I was stupid enough to download what I thought was a cracked version of Left4Dead2 (gamehackstudios.com gave me this trojan), turns out it was 2 harmless annoying chinese programs, one from tencent and another with UC in the name. I later discovered at the end of last month (september) another virus that directed me to trotux's search engine. before I found this I got desperate and attempted to get norton's anti virus protection (because I'm poor I could only grab free trials) but they couldn't even connect to their server to activate the trial. Turns out I had a proxy that was on google chrome and internet explorer that doesn't allow me to access nearly every site other than the stated sites such as: Youtube, facebook, malwaretips.com (luckily). I have deleted as much as I can through regedit and the proxy appears to be off in my internet settings but I'm still unable to access most websites. I would love to get help but I understand I only can when the admins have free time and find this post. I am happy that my performance isn't as bad as it was and it seems normal except when accessing carsales.com.au. Just incase I don't say this after, thanks for the help [/QUOTE]
