| I think my computer has gotten a virus :X
I can only view pages on AOL, Firefox will not connect, even though AOL will.
and I had a debug error, some adware, and sometimes text is HUGE on AOL...specifically the firefox help page X_X | |

| Best buy geek squad. it'll cost some $$$ but beilieve me they will repair your comp so well it'll be like getting it brand new.
EDIT: plus there's a chance they or someone they know made the virus so they'll know how to fix it. | |

| Lol boom, that's what you get for searching "boomage" on Google images....JK I recommend you download the program "spyware search & destroy" It will clear all the cookies and spyware probably on your comp. I highly doubt it's a virus. If u can't get the program for free, i can send you a copy, cuz i have it via e-mail. | |

| Damn, this is weird as hell.
Basically, I scanned my comp, found 75 tracker cookies(wtf are tracker cookies) and I STILL CANNOT open firefox, but everything else works.
It's probably not a virus but it's ANNOYING AS HELL.
I even reinstalled firefox, but, nothing. | |

| Ok
So, I found out what it was.
Firefox, has a problem with AVG8.0 and it's LinkScanner extension.
If you have Firefox AND AVG DO NOT get the LinkScanner, it's one of the biggest crashes for firefox.
for a temporary fix, I disabled it, eventually I'm just gonna get rid of LinkScanner completely | |
