It is a well known fact that once infected viruses bring in other viruses. I have personally seen one single computer infected with about 1100 viruses. How any have you seen

I have seen 3 viruses in one computer... 1100 viruses is unbelievable... how did you clean up the PC? was there enough memory (RAM) and HDD space for normal functioning of the PC, till it was cleaned up? did you have to format it?

Took me a few hours to figure it out. There was one virus loaded as a service. Once I was able to identify that and disable it, it was a matter of time. AVG took care of the rest.

Unbelievable! 1100... And what happened to the computer? Could it be cleaned? I have seen only two, in different computers, and not at the same time. One was in my old PC, and the other in the PC I use at work, caught and put behind the bars by AVG Free.
