bilstonjambo Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 I have a problem with my pc. After everytime i run the windows updates i cannot access my internet explorer, the only way i can get back into internet is to do a system restore back to a couple of days ago. Does anyone have any sort of idea what could be causing this problem?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Tynie Bubbles Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 This happened to my friend and after the guy in the repair shop got old of his PC it was noted that the windows update icon was very similar to the genuine one but was actually a very crafty form of spyware that he had inadvertantly been clicking on. He had to go through the same system restore process you have when this scam had locked his PC up. Might be worth getting it checked out. Hopefully it is nothing that serious.
