    Quick question

    Okay so i was talking with xel on msn about the virus my computer has,it blocks alot of sites including almost every anti-virus site (avg avent etc) What he told me to do was boot in safe mode but then i had to go.

    So is this what i do?

    1.Boot in safe mode
    2.Download and run avg to delete the virus.
    3.Start up in normal mode and its done?

    Quick question

    Boot into safe mode until you find and remove the threat, then you can boot normally again. Booting in safe mode will disable any programs from starting up when your computer starts up, meaning the virus won't start either (hopefully).
