What is apper.exe?

Apparently there is a virus there... on c-windows-apper.exe

So what is that before I go deleting it?

I'm going to try to heal it but if that doesn't work I may need to delete it...

Any clue has to what it is?

Thanks.

-Ok...first are you sure that theres a virus in that file?
-What told you that there was a virus there?

AVG told me... It popped up again so I told it to heal it, so that part is all good.

Anyone know where I can get a free firewall program because that computer keeps bitching at me to get one...

It's my parent's computer that has the virus not mine... My computers are all good! Woo!

But I figured I'd try and see if I can get that computer working again...

When you click start and go to all programs, you cant see the list of programs... Any ideas at what to do about that?

ZoneAlarm is pretty much standard. Free!

Alright well that seems to block me from being able to connect to the internet... Guess I'll have to mess around with that...

IE seems to be the problem.. I think I will just delete it and try to reinstall it...

I still can't access the all programs...

I could just reformat but I can't find the cd we used before...

Gah...

Don't use IE.  It leaves gaping holes in windows even with a firewall.  Get something else be it Firefox (my favorite), Netscape, Mozilla, Safari, etc.

Ok well to update you all...

I did system recovery and the viruses are gone! Woot!

Now I just have a problem with my network...

See my other topic...
