If you reformat try and save all of your important/wanted information onto another hard drive if you have one. Either that or onto discs. If you don't save it, it will all be lost.

I got it! Thank you so~~much! It' a huge project for me.
 
Formatting is usually the best option after you think you've been infected with a virus. Just make sure you have everything you need before you begin. You'll need a Windows disk and a valid serial number to activate it. If you bought your computer from an OEM (like Dell) there is a good chance you won't have the disk.

I agree an external hard drive, thumb drive, or burned CD/DVDs are the best bet for backups.
 
What's a keyblogger? Is it a malware program that reads your keystrokes and then posts them in a blog? :biggrin:
