Hi there,

have a problem with my computer,

Mouse keeps jumping then screen locks out, trying to print out college assignment finished at home last night, screen displays message ‘Gotchya’.

Thanks.

This problem could be related to a virus, do you have effective anti-virus software running regular scans on the system ?

[Simon]

I think there is but i am not sure, however i am not sure when the system was last scanned for a virus threat.

[Blair1]

The status of your anti virus can often be found on the task bar.

By double clicking on the icon it should open in a window informing you of the current status of the software and the last scan date.

i recommned scanning the system again to look for virus's

I have scanned the system and the anti-virus software has found 3 new threats to the system. the computer runs a lot better now and is a lot faster.

Thanks very much.

I would run through our malware guide, lots of stuff hides pretty well from most anti-virus scanning software.

uhh how would he scan if this happens to the mouse?

try booting in safe mode by holding F8 while booting and then select safe mode.

try www.onecare.com their safety scanner should fix it :D
