The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

UPS Email Virus problem

Asked by fingwong in Anti-Spyware, Anti-Spam Email Software, Anti-Virus

Hi All

I have looked through various questions and answers and obviously discovered that this has affected many users, as well as myself.

I have the same problem in that my boss opened up an email alledgely from UPS and infected his machine with this virus.  He reckons he was expecting an email from them and thats why he did it!!!!! ( Yeah righto)

We have Symantec AV corp edition 10.2, updating on a daily basis and it got straight past it!!

Anyway I have done the usual and followed instructions off other questions so here are my details.

WIN XP Pro SP2, I have ran Combifix in safe mode which seemed to solve the problem.  After this ran Spybot Search and Destroy, which found a few more issues, which I got rid of via the software.  After this I thought "Great" everyone else says there's is usually ok after this, so I booted into Normal mode and low and behold the little error message in the system tray popped up saying the usual naff information (Your computer is infected:- Windows has detected spyware etc etc) popping up every 15 seconds or so.

I thought a good place to start would be with a Hijackthis log, so if anyone can help me out please do as this is now a matter of urgency.

Thanks in advance

Nick
