Recently, I have been infected with some viruses (like the w32v!rut.A) and while my norton has done a good job of getting ride of the risks, I believe there are still some traces left. I use this program "Poker Ace Hud" for entertainment which now does not work. It is properly installed and I did uninstall/install again, and again and still no dice. In addition, some of my desktop icons are duds. The files are all there but the programs simply will not load. So I attempted to reformat my disk and I am unable!! When I press F11 for recovery, after a few seconds the screen simply turns black and stays that way forever. I am also getting the same "error(...code LP5...)" when trying to open my Ad-aware software. I contacted gateway and they have no clue what this error code LP5 is, so that leads me to believe it's not a real error. I have also contacted the support on the Poker Ace Hud and they have no clue what this is. I have searched for this error over the internet and I have found very little information. Mainly clues that it can be the w32 virus or some CA/e-trust anti-virus Firewall/program, however, I don't even have that anti-virus program, nor did I ever. Anyway, here is my Hijackthis report if you find it neccessary:
