Another Virus :(
I have yet ANOTHER virus on my computer, why is this happening to me all the time?!? Aparently its called Trojan.Simcss
Now i know nothing on how to get rid of viruses so i need help on every single step
I dont know why i always get them, i might not know a lot about computers but i do know for a fact i am firewalled. Ive got norton antivirus and run regular system checks and live updates and still i get spyware and viruses

Disable System Restore (Windows Me/XP).
Update the virus definitions.
Restart the computer in Safe mode or VGA mode
Run a full system scan and delete all the files detected as Trojan.Simcss
Delete the values that was added to the registry.

another point is if you are using IE switch browsers to Monzilla Firefox. That helped me immensely

ive done everything i could, some of the regisrty keys werent there so i couldnt delete them so im not sure of the virus is gone or not.
I use norton antivirus and the scans take hours, at least 5 hours at a time and the things it finds i cant do anything with, most of the time they wont delete and all of the time none of them fix or go into quarantine.....

If you can't delete them, you should boot into safe mode. Also make sure you virus defintions are up to date.
