How does one totally reboot ones PC? As in deleting exactly everything except the standard necesary files and making it as good as new.
Well my dad "forgot" (more like ignored) to update norton and after his daily porn surfing the PC is filled with viruses messing things up pretty bad and I'm not kidding it really was my dad and he's blaming me for not teaching him anything about a PC (He's a total n00b btw) which I have but he never listens to anything I say.
First, ditch Norton and pick up Avast, SpyBot Search & Destroy, Registry Mechanic/or System Mechanic. Run those to see what good they will do.
Nearly every virus can be eliminated without need to reformat, trust me I had a malicious trojan a while back that none of the programs could remove and I did a Google search on the name of the trojan and it took me to tech help forums who walked me through how to manually remove it.
The viruses are gone (long ago) but the pc is totally messed up and shit and I really really need to reformate it, so how do I start the reformating process ? (I have windows xp)
I watch porn too but not on the friggin internet, too friggin risky, only my dad is stupid enough to pornsurf (no offence to any other pornsurfers) the TV is safe so far

Guess I'll have to live with this but things could be worse.
one thing's bugging me, when I try to open a media file that is opened with window media player by double clicking the hourglass apears for a half second and nothing happens and I have to open it by right clicking and open it by going into "open with" and choose from there, is there a way to fix this? It's really irritating
