    Reinstalled XP and didn't back up...

    Was in a rush and missed one of the most important things on my pc.

    Fucking depressed as shit right now.

    All because of that stupid fucking trojan. I would love to get my hands on that mother fucker that built that nasty bug.

      I had the same thing and I had to reinstall too.

      You'll be able to get at least most of your stuff back by logging in as admin and retaking ownership and permissions on all files and folders under your old account. But, you'll have to reinstall your old programs.

      I'd like to get their hands on this bastard too. They've wasted a week of my time, not to mention the other hundred thousand people plus they've done this to.

        There's a great piece of software with which you can make snapshots of your
        hdd at any given time and burn it to disk. When something bad happens you
        can just restore that snapshot. No reinstall of the OS, no restore of data, just
        BAM! all done at once.

        I forgot the name....I'll dig it up a bit later for ya

            everyone should invest in external hard drives.. just picked up another seagate one myself.. USB 2.0 so fast as fuck also.. not to mention I can quickly swap files between my desktop and laptop and bring it anywhere, etc..

                I keep a 300 gig external drive to back up my data.. and have had the trojan problem a short time ago as well. Its shitty when someone thinks when creating it that it was going to be a good idea

                  ..

                  I got that trojan 4 days ago..didn't reinstall either =) I spent 10 hours using about 15 different programs to clean everything out and now my comp is clean as it ever was.

                  www.webroot.com = spysweeper one of the best
                  http://www.ewido.net/en/ = another great one
                  http://www.majorgeeks.com/download3155.html (HackThis) = should be required on every comp
                  the new microsoft spysweeper works nice also.

                  If you get files you can't delete becaus they are in use, get a program called "Unlocker". With that installed you can delete anything.


                  If you didn't get hit you should go here ASAP and install the quick patch fix that will block it..and of course use firefox unlike my idiot self =)

                        I went out and bought at external yesterday and backed everything up to it, so I thought. I had a file in one of my program folders and this it did not save to the external. What a piece of work.

                                    System restore and also a nice cleaning seems to have worked here.

                                        If it was very important businesswise it should have been burned to disc right after creation. Sorry, I know that doesn't make you feel any better

                                              Ghost 10.0 by Symantec

                                              Key Features

                                              * Backs up everything on your computer - digital music, photos, financial documents, applications, settings, operating system, etc. - in one easy step.
                                              * Recovers your system and data even when you can't restart your operating system.
                                              * Makes incremental backups to maximize space and save time.
                                              * Makes backups on the fly, without restarting your system.
                                              * Backs up to almost any media, including CDR/RW and DVD+-R/RW drives, USB and FireWire® (IEEE 1394) devices, and Iomega® Zip® and Jaz® drives.

                                              New Features

                                              * Automatically creates an initial backup schedule based on your computer's configuration.
                                              * Automatically detects storage devices, analyzes your system, and offers "best practice" backup advice during installation.
                                              * Automatically monitors and optimizes backup disk space.
                                              * Triggers backups on key events, like new program installations or user logins.
                                              * Creates new backups on demand with One Button "Back Up Now".
                                              * Encrypts backups to help keep them secure.
                                              * Task-based interface simplifies management and monitoring.
                                              * Displays all scheduled backups - plus the degree of backup protection for each drive on your computer - in one convenient view.
                                              * One-step setup wizard makes installation and configuration quick and easy.
                                              * Begins backing up to Maxtor external drives by simply pressing the Maxtor OneTouch? button.
