I was searching for a water shader mod for minecraft and I came across the
Finite Liquid mod on Google, it was one of those links that begin the download automatically and so when it finished downloading every program I had open crashed and closed with this error:
Once that happens then the program won't open unless it's '
Run as Administrator' which I can't do when I want to open videos, music or images. I have to open the program and manually select every file I want to preview. In the Control Panel I can't click any of the blue links so I cannot uninstall any programs or anything. If I try to type a command in the Command Prompt it comes up with
Access Denied.
I've downloaded
Malwarebytes Anti-Malware and used it to scan my computer, it said it found the viruses and then deleted them but I'm still experiencing problems. Now I'm trying
Microsoft Security Essentials and it's taking over 6+ hours to scan my computer and if it comes up with nothing I'm gonna be mad (I've been sitting here all day waiting for it to finish) D:<
I haven't told my mum about it considering she's really upset that the car is now broken and she can't afford to fix it so we'll be missing out on a lot of planned visits and trips for the holidays. Plus this is also my new laptop after all and I'm really worried how she will react. I've never had a virus before so I'm not exactly sure what to do. I live in a really small rural area and where I bought the laptop is an hour away by car. I know there's a computer fixing home business here but I don't know if they deal with viruses or just fixing broken screens and stuff.
I'm not sure if I still have my one year warranty on the laptop? I've heard restoring my laptop to factory settings would get rid of the virus but I would have to back up all my files on a USB or something, right? I'm just worried I might infect my USB or hard drive.
In desperate need of help here, would anyone have a solution? D:
