OK, so I figure out how to delete the files. (You don't hold F8 to get to
Safe Mode, you tap it successively) Then, of course, the computer didn't
work right so I had to reinstall Widows 98 (don't laugh you anti-Microsoft
techies)
So now the virus is gone, the computer is running properly and all I have to
do is be responsible (finally) and buy an antivirus program. So I go with
McAfee Active Shield, but I can't get the darn thing to download!!!! I've
been on their tech support chat line three times today!!! I've deleted
stuff, I've gotten into that registry thing and deleted other stuff, I've
upgraded Internet Explorer to the right 5,5 version and it STILL won't
download the McAfee Agent program.
They finally decided there must be an antivirus program left from some other
time and they can't help me find it!!
ARGGHH!!!! Trying to put in an antivirus program is turning out to be a
bigger pain than getting rid of the damned virus!!!
HELP!!!!!
