Unread postby mitchell0715 » March 3rd, 2009, 7:24 pm

Hello, im mitchell and i have had an ongoing problem with a program which i believe to be a virus. I recently had to reformat my computer from a varient of this virus and now it's back. I believe it is the iexplore.exe virus which causes my computer to run extremely slow and causes me to have to restart at times. i have tried blocking this process and scanned my computer without success. Feel free to pm me and i will give you a messenger service from which you may contact me easier.
