i think my computer's about to crash.


Question Posted Monday July 21 2008, 4:01 pm

i downloaded some things onto my computer and i think some of them are taking over and trying to crash my system. [bearshare, i think is whats doing it] i just now uninstalled alot of programs. there's this anti-virus thing that keeps scrwing with my computer, it's blocking me from reading my email because it says its trying to protect my computer bu all it wants me to do is buy its product, so its really messing with my internet and says 40 bugs are found in your system. im really worried because this cmputer cant be replaced and i dont want it to crash. and i want those viruses off. and my itunes isnt even working right. there's this screen that pops up every 30 seconds when im on itunes and it says AppleMobileDeviceHelper has stopped working.. then under it says a problem caused the program to stop working correctly & it says to close the program to notify if a solution is available but it won't close from that message so it doesnt work and doesnt check for solutions. and that screen keeps popping up.
please help save my computer...
before its too late :(

The "antivirus" is just making that up. They just want you to buy their useless product.

Follow my guide here:

If, after following that guide the problem still remains, post to a malware removal forum:

My computer went bad like your has once, and my uncle did something to it that totally re-starts your computer and everything you had on it goes away except for the stuff that came with the computer.
Also, I have a warning to be careful because there is a type of virus called a "Trojan Horse" and it pretends to be an Anti-Virus but it really just lets more more viruses into your computer, so be careful what Anti-Virus stuff you download ;) Hope your computer gets better soon!

ive had this happen to my computer too. I told my dad and he installed some antivirus thing on it. sorry i dont know what its called but maybe if you googled antivirus something will come up. then he ran it a lot of times. so make sure that you run it more than once. if it still doesnt work i think you should take it in to a store where they fix this kind of stuff. like best buy or the apple store.

best of luck!
