Network Hijack

[--LegoPepper--]

Lol, I got a network hijack just this morning. All I can say is thank god I have another computer. Well, not really a hijack, but a virus deleted my DNS. I have Microsoft Security Essentials doing a full scan right now. I think it may be the Win32/Alureon.H Virus. MSE keeps disinfecting it. Any ideas of security programs that I could use alongside MSE? (Not including expensive Norton and McAfee.)

Avast!

Just wanted to note their new update really does make them look like Spyware :/

How about spyware doctor or malwarebytes? I know Spyware Doctor costs money, but it's rated high by a lot of people, so... yeah... Alureon is a type of conflicker worm. I guess it's the worst virus of 2010.

Malewarebytes to remove it, but use Avast! afterwards to maintain protection

OMG I think I found what was bugging my computer. 6 viruses. Well, 4 Exploiters, and 2 Trojans.

Luckily MSE got rid of them successfully.

I use AV Security Suite. It's free and it's the best!
Not really, it's a virus.


I use Norton because my parents bought a year :(

First thing I did when I got this PC was disabling the antivirus.
