Smart Computer Folk?

I only updated to Windows XP today and got a fast connection.

Every time I try to play an audio or video file I get a notice that the RPC server is not working and there is insufficient memory. I dont even know what an RPC server is and I have plenty of memory.

I had a fairly well-known virus earlier today that uses a weakness in windows to force the system to reboot all the time.

it goes under the names

W32.Blaster.worm
W32/lovsan.worm
win32.poza
WORM.MSBLAST.A
Win32.poza

I looked up online what to do about it, but i did not completely understand the instructions and did them about half. Now the virus doesn`t seem to be there anymore but I cant play any media files.

Also, this was so already before I had this virus, I can`t copy/paste things.

any tips?
 
Do a repair install of Windows. Boot from the XP CD, and the repair console will be one of the options.

Then after that's done, go to Windows Update and do ALL the avilable updates.

Good advice and then set XP to do updates automatically and you are set. And stay off shady websites.
 
and if that dont werk, go into the BIOS setup and find the "Boot sequence" parameter. make sure that the CD rom boots before the Hard drive, or else, your sticking the CD in, wont do shit, if you want to boot from it.


if you dunno how to get into the BIOS, ima try an explain a bit.
I'm slightly drunk, so excuse me, if it's rather unclear:

anyway, to get into the BIOS, you need to hit the DEL key on the ... err... post screen, I think it's called. in the very beginning, when the computer starts, there's this Star logo or some shit. there's a memory test and such. and it should say "press DEL key gently to slide into the BIOS setup area."
 
by the way, how in the fuck did you manage to get a new OS, and infect yourself with a virus in one day


is that the KaZZZa virus?
if it is, I think there's a simple way to clean it up. should be posted somewhere on the net.


if you're a reinstalling the whole thing,
and since you just got your dose of the win dose, may I suggest that you do a clean install into some different folder altogether. then just delete you old win folder, and some boot.ini cleanup and some shit.

there's nothing to lose, and you'll get a fresh start.
 
if you go to the microsoft website and search around, there is a program you can downlaod that will scan and delete the virus from your computer, it was when the worm virus was going around.
 
After recovering from the repair console, go to Windows Update and download the patch to prevent you from this well known virus (if it is blaster)
 
I fucking reformatted my PC... I put up a firewall, I go online, to the microsoft website for christs sake, and I get hit by the blaster worm again. What now!?

probably through your email bud
they doing some sic shit with email these days
do not accept any email from someone you do not know
best line they are using is" hey not seen you in awhile"
or "someone wants to talk to you"
 
the blaster worm is a worm, so it is not spread via e-mail - it is spread via the RPC ports - just by being online with an XP system you get it.

a virus or trojan is spread by e-mail amount other things, but a worm spreads on its own via other methods.

if you had a firewall, you should be okay - and like everyone is saying, you need to get the updates.
 
LINUX!
 
See now, somehow people get 18 month of virii.....I don't know how that works.

Get a mac. I haven't gotten new, old or ancient virii.... ever.
 
It is true.

If you find that you get a lot of viruses/worms/trojans, then you have several options:

1) Be less retarded in your use of the net. Get yourself a hardware firewall - they are like $40 in the States.

2) Don't use Windows.

Linux has exploit issues occasionally for the same... well, similar reasons, as Windows - coming out of the box with defaults activated (less so over the years for Linux, whereas Windows gets worse).

The Mac does have issues, but nowhere near the same and much harder to easily exploit (most are flaws in the admin system where you need physical access to the machine).

I am an admin of a Windows network and it has opened my eyes to the fact that nobody understands what the net is, nobody uses the computer remotely properly, and Windows is a steaming pile of shit for anyone that doesn't know how to use it.
I used to think that it was just a matter of getting people to learn how to use it - but people just don't want to.
I used to think that was because they were retarded - but now I see it is because they just don't give a shit.

In the end, I fucking hate having to say the same shit over and over again to the same people about the same shit.

I have a serious case of RTFM towards everyone.
 
I have't had a virus at home in at least 6 years.
 
I cant download the updates because this worm hits me everytime I go on and I cant download it.
I have a firewall but it doesn`t help one bit.
I have www.kerio.com firewall, I was told it would help against these worms.
