Hello there!
After getting spammed with strange messages telling me to download an antivirus program, i decided to run spybot (which was only just updated). It detected a large amount of spyware and a couple of trojans, after telling it to fix them, i was told 6 of the processes couldn't be fixed and required a restart.
After rebooting the computer i was unable to log into any profiles without being instantly being logged out again. I have tried to enter in safe mode but the same thing happens, is there any way around this without having to reformat? As i have university coursework on there i dont want to lose :'(. Any help would be massively appreciated,
Thankyou!
