Chat bug.

[ElectroM]

Hello,

Every once in a while, I start writing weird messsages (Can't copy them)

Not a virus or anything cause scanned pc 2 times with norton.

I am wondering if you can like ban me from saying these weird messages. (They like 2 weird message I write in chat)

People are getting annoyed of them, and me too.

Doesn't happen on msn, and no where else, so what to do?

Thanks,
ELectorM

0.o Yea good idea SG -.-

Maybe it's better idea I invite you to a room, and every some minutes, you get those weird messages while you talking to your clan mates. That will be good idea too? ;p

Vega conversion update has new chat system.

 

[ElectroM]

Delloda, does the new chat system send messages in weird language like: choic sof wdsa giafa sda then a weird website?

Don't think so, and It's not only in vega, I can see:
ElectroM: fsafj adfasi dasd chio jokd sq then a website

meanwhile I can't move ship can' move mouse (Just in the game).

I died many times because of it, because I couldn't move my ship away or repair myself.

If you can ban me from saying a certain message, I will write down here what really is written by me but not from me and you can maybe ban me from saying these messages.

Thanks,
ElectroM

the text that you describe looks like it is from spam mail that you get in emails. you've got a browser hijack virus. Virus scanners can't clear it. PG is in essence a browser same so it is susceptible to browser hijacks. Even the download client is actually a browser based popup window. We just use trickery to make it look like a normal game client.

you need to use http://free.antivirus.com/hijackthis/ to clear them manually.

Also careful of dirty things hiding in the recycle bin that can't be deleted normally. http://www.atribune.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=25&Itemid=25 use this.

Ok, Delloda! Thanks a lot for information.

Trying both right now.

 

[ElectroM]

I instaled hijack and it said when I open it : You don't have appropriate permission to open this folder

0.o, And there is no "run as", there's only 1 user on my laptop, and I'm using it, it is administrator user so I should have the permission to.

I used 2nd one, and it did what it said, freed 200 mbs from my pc, tried to re-open hijack but didn't work.

I'll just send laptop to someone and format it, that'll fix it for sure. Thanks anyway for your help Delloda

Try to open up folder with right click, use Open up or run, as Admin, that should let you do it,
I am admin of my pc, and some times I have to do this for to run some programs with admin rights.

 

[ElectroM]

But I already said | And there is no "run as", there's only 1 user on my laptop, and I'm using it, it is administrator user so I should have the permission to.|

Only open available, so I think a virus smart enough to avoid being caught by antivirus and can disable opening what can harm it?

As I said, I'm going to buy a new laptop, so I don't care, + I'll send this one to be formatted and it will be as new as it was.

Zalaza, W A S D don't write choic moi nei and more weird stuffs.. + a website..

Ok Glad to hear you are not that worried about it, but you are using the same laptop right now, aren't you?

Remember when you will get the new computer you have to change every password you have used during this problem, cause a keylogger logs all data you are typing in, and it records it, and sends to the one who infested you, and they will use the data they have acquired by this.
Hijacker hijacks your browser use, but it also logs all what you are typing in to the page.

What happens, old computer, new computer, they will have your data no matter what you do.

But my new laptop (Getting it by next week) will have antivirus installed, to make sure it is a virus I created a folder which contains 1 folder empty, in my usb drive, and I put in my brother's laptop, in less than 5 seconds, 5 virus hits, and they were at "HIGH" priority, but I removed them, and problems was solved.

What I am encountering then is a virus, a strong one too.

I contacted a friend of mine that says he has same virus, and I asked how long he had it, and he said for long. Well, I borrowed a CD from him, and it was infected. I cleared infection on it by putting it on my brother's laptop. That's the source of my virus, idiot didn't tell me he had virus at that time.

My brother has AVG or something, best version, which will be also on my new laptop, so I think it will handle the problem.

And since I'm using mini laptop now i can't install AVG cause it so small that there's no CD Drive.

Thanks for your response and the new helpful info, Adrana!
