OK, somehow, this virus managed to slip past my very good antiviral software (microsoft security essentials) and now I can`t just remove it. Does anyone understand how to do this? I looked on the internet and different people say different things. Much thanks and appreciation in advance.
can you do a system restore back to before you got it?

Once again, your expert Bip to the rescue.
Here's what you do
1.) Open computer in safe mode(tap f8 when you boot the computer)
2.) Go to your c drive
3.) Delete all files titled Biphasnoideawhatheistalkingabout.exe
4.) Turn off computer
5.) Bring to Staples
6.) Get a job to pay for the cost of staples virus removal
7.) Pickup computer
8.) Turn on
9.) Surf porn
Do you know which virus/trojan it is? What are the symptoms?

I think I figured this one out on my own, so hopefully I have seen the last of it and it didn't do any damage:
I did the task manager thing, and when it was trying to get me to run a scan, I hit end task... which obviously doesn't delete it. However, the real program is written in a different code or name. When windows explorer asked me to send an error report, it actually showed me that code and asked if I wanted to send a report. I didn't. I just copied that code and searched for it, found it, then deleted it. It looks like the program is gone now.... hopefully that's it.
So yeah... I thought I tackled this thing, but now all of the files on my comp and when I say that, I mean everything. So essentially... I am foocked.
that sux man. sorry to hear that.
Thanks. Im just praying to dear God I can restore those files if I can take it to someone who is qualified at this sheeot, bc I sure as in hell am not.
