I turn it on and it takes forever to load the desktop. It killed my Dhcp client. Help! Doing this from a phone.

Dang, that sucks.

I dont know. This is the 2nd time I've ever had Virus. (Right Now)

Thinkpoint holds your system ransom, not slow down.

What AV do you use?

Isn't there some new virus that completely fries your computer?  Happened to my dad and uncle within days of each other.

try ramming a screwdriver into your hard drive.

Worked for me, only I had to get a new hard drive as it stopped working :/

Just tell me if i have a thinkpoint.
I did, i have to buy a new laptop. It ruined my everything.
Just unplug your computer, plug it back in, restart, and before it reaches the Welcome screen, press CTRL ALT DELETE like there's no tommorow. Then it should open Taskmanager. Click on the "thinkpoint.exe" or "hotfix.exe" and click end process.
Helped massively for me

Boot into safe mode and use malwarebytes?

I have A VAIO with windows vista, and i use spyware doctor. Is SD the problem?

Safe mode stops most programs from running, like most AV systems.
