Working on apps. You fix your comp?


well, the virus is gone, but something else happened that's even worse. Apparently, in trying to get rid of the virus, I changed some attributes or applications for the existing programs on my comp. Now, it thinks everything is a firefox url (complete with having all the icons switched to the firefox logo) and I can't do anything with them, including go online. Internet explorer already doesn't work and I somehow don't have access to system restore to change everything back. I have no freaking idea exactly how it happened or what to do to change it. I don't want to reformat because I have a lot of stuff (including very important application stuff) saved on there and don't have enough space on my two flash drives to store it all.

I have the microsoft recovery console, but i have no idea how to use it.

Just when I was all relieved after finishing my MCAT, i have to deal with this crap. I'm currently at my school's computer lab which looks like I'll be using for the time being.

F my life 🙁🙁
 
Did not think it would be so hard to balance one course, volunteering, apps, and left over research requirements from the year.

Mostly the apps that takes up the time.

And patios in the summer😛

Canadian alert.

All hands on deck.
 
I went to Canada for spring break, and all I got was crappy $8 Molson Beers (even though they were 10.1% ABV). BS!

Floridian coming to Canada for spring break....

Yeah, our beer/alcohol prices are about 2x you guys', and we can only buy them from one government run franchise.
 
Well in quebec you can buy beer at Costco etc.

We have the Beer Store here. Thats it 🙁

Yeah, that's lame. I saw the coolest thing ever in Canada, though!

Coor's Light Hexagon, not the cute puppy. We have those in America, too.
 
any techies out there can help me with my computer problems?
 
I would also try re-installing Firefox / IE and see if that clears up anything.

Does anything else open up at startup? Go to:

Run
Type in: Msconfig.exe
Go to startup and disable things which seem messed up to you (things that stick out as spywear).

Then you said your problem was everything was a firefox symbol? I would say that the registry is broken for it.
 
It's so empty ... empty ... empty ... empty ... empty ... empty ... empty.
 
Hello ... hello ... hello ... hello ... hello ... hello ... hello?
 
wow, haven't multiquoted in a while
Do you have a current back-up of your hard drive (I'm guessing not, but it's worth asking).

well, no, I've got a couple of flash drives but no way of backing up everything I have. I definitely will invest in either a external drive or some online form of storage when this is all done though

I would also try re-installing Firefox / IE and see if that clears up anything.
That possible could work, if I had access to the internet. Neither are working right now. And IE hasn't been working for months

Actually, I can't seem to do anything other than go to the control panel and mess around there. I did mess with the registry when I was dealing with that spyware program and that's probably where I went wrong. I used the regedit program to go through all that stuff and get rid of rouge registry values and then ran a ccleaner to get rid of other registry problems (which never gave me problems in the past). I bet it was the regedit that caused my current problems

have you tried the standard, rkill-->mbam-->new host file, option? It always works for me.

is this for the virus/malware because I assume mbam is malewarebytes antimalware right? That thing worked wonders for my current problem. Before I went and messed it up by dealing with registry stuff.

Thanks for all your help guys, remind me to buy you a beer if I ever see any of you on the interview trail 🙂

Depending on what version of Windows you have, there might be a workaround the IE problem.

If you go to Window's Explorer tool and type in a website on the main address bar, it should be able to perform the same functions as IE.
 
I'm back everyone!

And now I'm leaving to go unpack!

Btw WTF ralty?!?!? It's on....once I finish setting up my apartment. I got my game face on.

You were doing it all wrong. Fin Du Monde is a Canadian beer and one of my favorites 👍.

What's up everyone? There are crazy storms here in Florida. That's nothing new for summer though...

Fin du Monde is Canadian? I never would've guessed because it's actually pretty good. And nothing from Canada is good, well except for

I'm surprised you've had it. It's high-alc and is sold in $11 4-packs, so most people never have. It is excellent though, and you've earned valuable respect points from me. You may redeem them when and how you see fit.

As far as she is concerned, I usually go for brunettes, but I'd maple leaf her zamboni any day.

Thoughts on the Nyan Cat?

Should I change it back to Bender?

My school has a pub that sells high alcohol content beers along with all sorts of other craft beers. That's how I was able to find out about Fin du Monde.

I'm not big on blonds myself, but hot damn Elisha is foine!

And for the valuable respect points, can I redeem them in the form of you writing my PS for me 😀

Game faces are overrated - I pulled a fast one last one by telling everyone I was going to sleep and coming back and spamming.

Bring iT!
