According to AVG, yep.

EDIT: Hmm, I will take a look and report back. Give me a minute...
Virus Help....Oh dear

Hello guys,

Need some help on a Trojan that appears to have made it's way onto my Computer. I was surfing YouTube looking at some Videos, and next thing I know, AVG is going nuts telling me it has detected two viruses.

Here's what it says.

C:\\WINDOWS\system32\winlogon.exe - Virus Identified Win32/Patched.FM.

C:\\WINDOWS\explorer.exe - Virus Identified Win32/Patched.FL

Now, being important Windows files, there is nothing I can do. AVG will not quarantine or delete these files due to them being white listed. I've tried using Malwarebytes Anti-Malware and that does nothing either. AVG's Resident Shield will just stay open constantly notifying me of these errors.

I really need some help on how to Remove or Repair them files without having to Re-Format my Computer, as that is not an option at the moment. I'm really confused as to where this Virus could of come from, as I was only browsing YouTube, and I have never visited any sort of dodgy sites, so I'm baffled.

Any help?

Regards,
Nathan

EDIT: Just noticed that Opera sometimes opens Tabs on it's own containing adverts, so I assume it is from YouTube.

Quote from PoVo :Darn, I got stuck on Chapter 14, where you have to kill Derek and Steve. I get into the building, where Derek and Steve is, and the guards throw molotov's in front of the boxes which I'm hiding behind. Eventually that makes my health go down, and I die.

Any ideas?

I know that spoilers should be expected in this thread, but could you please put some sort of note to say your post contains spoilers, or at least blank the text? Totally ruined Chapter 14 for me now.

Quote from -NightFly- :WORD!...From the first impression,: absolutely fantastic, just how all the world is evolving around you, people fighting, throwing vases through windows etc(i think that rockstar games have something to learn from here). I was hooked into that world within a second...the winter looked so....real, yes. I can't understand how you lads keep calling this game a busllsh*t....seriously, reading your comments....

Just wait until your Rose Tinted shades wear off. Then you will start to see how much of a disappointment the game really is. For 8 years of development, they could of added many more features quite easily, Free Roam and Multiplayer could of been done in that time. Just seems to me like they concentrated a little too much on the Story, and not enough on what players can do after.

Quote from BlueFlame :Eh mate, you might wanna sort that camber on your left rear out!

Not my Car, but I see your point.

Apparently, it was a 316i with M3 running gear which the guy bought for cheap. He took it on a track day not realizing that the Rear Left bottom arm had suffered a knock before, so the guy he bought it off heated it up and bent it back to shape. Problem was the Non-M3 bottom arms are already as strong as a crisp packet, hence bending it back done it no favors.

Next time the guy took a corner, the arm bent back, and he done a further two laps wondering why the hell the car was handling so weird. He's lucky it did not come off altogether, as it could of quite easily flipped the car! Lucky sod...

Quote from theirishnoob :lmfao why did you even bother posting it ?

Because some people did/will enjoy it, and it also means Part 2 can be posted in this thread when it arrives. Even though the Video isn't great, this thread is still more useful then most of your bullshit posts, like racing your Cars around the Docks and having the workers join in. Remember that?

Twat.

Ken Block has made his return to Gymkhana, this time in the Ford Fiesta. This is Part 1, with there being more to come in the not too distant future.

Enjoy.

Click me if your man enough!

Was a bit too much of a commercial for my likings, but Ken Block has apparently said that the next Video will have more car action. Let's hope so.

Quote from dadge :i'm sure the very same thing was said to you only a few days ago m8.

I think that's why he posted it. Infact, he actually PM'ed me about the matter, so I told him to "F Off".

I downloaded a whole bunch of Paint.NET effects Today, so the following pictures may be a little OTT as I was seeing what the effects can do.







I know there not the best, but they helped pass an hour of boredom. What do you guys think?

Edit: Oh nuts! I forgot to resize the last one. Sorry guys!

Quote from dawesdust_12 :Mostly because I'm being forced into buying a 360.

Your coming to the Dark Side?!

Don't worry though, you will enjoy it. Even though I don't have a PS3 anymore, I'm not afraid to admit that I did enjoy it sometimes. I just use the 360 more, hence why I sold the PS3.

If you do get a 360, make sure you got the usual things like HD Cables and whatnot, and when you come around to getting Xbox Live, send me a PM. I know a guy who could do you a 12 Months subscription for Half Price. Also, if it's the first gen white ones, expect it to sound like a Jet Engine at full throttle.

Disgusting looking car. I would rather drive this...

Quote from dawesdust_12 :Who knows. I'm 1/2 tempted to just skip over it, and buy something like RUSE when it comes out. Or save my money for Fallout: New Vegas or NHL11.

Why not do what I'm gonna do? Rent it out and complete it (if you want), then once you have handed it back, just forget about it until Free-Roam or Multiplayer arrives.

It would only cost me £6 to rent it for a week. I would rather do that instead of paying £30-£40, completing it, having nothing to do after, which means that Mafia 2 will just be a pretty plastic ornament in my cabinet.

EDIT: BTW Dawes, we should give ourselves a pat on the back. This is the first time we have managed to interchange more than 2 posts between each other, without it turning into a Xbox vs. PS3 argument.

Quote from dawesdust_12 :I could. I played the demo quite a bit.. but meh.. if I have the potential for free roam on my PS3.. why not?

Maybe I'll do a Bioshock and buy it for 3 platforms.. or TF2.

Well, Free-Roam could also come to the PC and 360 too as I doubt they would do it for one platform. I was just saying it because the PS3 has suffered a terrible port and when comparing it to the 360 and PC, it really does make you notice the difference.

Quote from dawesdust_12 :I'll still buy it for PS3 once I get paid.

I know nothing about Macs so excuse me if I sound stupid but, couldn't you just buy it for PC and put it on your Mac? Not only will you be able to Mod the game (as there will inevitably be Mods eventually) but you also won't have to suffer with the PS3's problems with Mafia 2, providing your Mac is powerful enough of course.

Quote from DevilDare :Uhm. Well, you cant really complain about not knowing how long the story will be. They have said it is around 10h of gameplay...

I wasn't aware that they already said that before it's release, but no matter which way you look at it, 10 hours is way to short for a story line. I'm sure that Mafia 2's story is fantastic, but I think it is too short personally.

Personally, I feel quite disappointed about what I have heard so far. I'm sure I will enjoy Mafia 2 when I get round to playing it, but unless they patch in a Free-Roam or Multiplayer mode, I will not be buying it. I shall just rent it out for a while, complete it then forget about it.
