Jim K. on Interlachen Dr. — sorry that your curiousity got the better of you. You just had to open that piece of spam. You won’t do that again too soon.
Regardless I am glad I was able to help.
Jim’s problem was that when he would turn on the computer, and try to log in, his desktop would bring up only a splash screen, generated by the gog.exe virus.
Ugh a virus
Luckily, although annoying, I was able to get past it and banish it without too much trouble. Jim – sorry your McAfee did not get it, before you were infected, but at least cleaning it up was not terribly difficult. But as we discussed, your computer is close to being obsolete. Next time there is a problem, lets really work on getting you a new computer, and moving your data from the old to the new. A single core P4 with 512 MB of RAM, just does not cut it any longer.
