Hi HMH!

It is seriously rude to jump into someone else's thread. Your answer is in your own thread here CastleCops Link/t68547-HELP_I_need_to_know_how_to_remove_Trojan_horse_comet_b_c_d.html

Since you are new, we will forgive you this time. Wink

Welcome Computer Cops! Thumbs Up


Best regards

Folks
Iv'e followed the instructions, had had no luck.
When I try to run AVG in safe mode it will not run, I get an error.
Missing some sort of driver.
So I removed the AVG I had on the PC and installed a new version, still received the same error.
Any other ideas as how to remove this lil devil?

Thanks in advance

Hi Barebels!

Welcome to CCSP!

You are new so I understand if you don't know the rules here yet. Wink Please refer to this: CastleCops Link/postt71526.html

You are supposed to start your own New Topic thread for your particular problem. Maybe they let people jump into other people's threads at other boards? Not at this one.

I know what you need to do next. Start your own Topic and I will provide it. Wink
