hello, i hope someone can help a RnF(since .com days) fan out.
Description of my problem plus details.


About 3 days ago i got this virus(at least i think its a virus) and everytime i turn on my pc and windows loads this hardcore porn thing pops up on my screen. Theres no x to click it off instead i have to alt cont delete it . Its name is Qcache.

Ive done everything i usually do when something like this happens. I searched my pc for the file Qcache and deleted it. Ive tried using Gateway GoBack(lets me return my pc to were it was days b4) and yet this damn thing still comes back. Ive tried clicking on some of the thumbnail pics to see if it goes away but it dosnt. Also ive ran the pc in safe mode and ran spybot and adaware scans, but nothing works.

Also now the virus or a different one(i dont know) has caused my audi not to work and worste of all my CDR/CDRW drive cant read/write(says device not ready) or delete disks. So now theres no way to listen to RnF.

Other details: when i find Qcache in my c: drive it is listed as an application. and when it loads up there isnt a name at the bottom(toolbar?) like there is with all other sites. Example now on the bottom toolbar it says "RonFez.Net Message..." this one is just blank. Also on th page above the porn pics , it says either "gallery previewer" or "Thumbnail Previewer".

What really confuses me is that the previous night i wasnt looking at porn(not saying i dont ever but ) i was just playing poker and the usual b.s i do . so im puzzled on were this came from. turn on the pc next morning and there it is.

when i check my history its listed as h t t p://206.111 ....and so on(dont want to put the entire address here)

I hate asking for help, but i tried for the last 3 days and have gotten nowhere. So if someone could help me out that would be great. Thanks .
nothing like this has happened b4 and im lost.

please email me at okterrificsk@yahoo.com

i also tried punching the computer screen but somehow that didnt fix the problem. But now my hand hurts.

Punching the monitor? Are you an idiot? You have to punch the case!

Well, first of all, a little tip: When you start up your computer and that thing pops up, hit ALT + F4. It closes it so you can continue on. I would assume it was spyware. When you did those scans, make sure you can make them as indepth as you can.

Do a search of your computer for files and folders called "Qcache" and see if anything turns up. Also, check your task manager/proccesses. I also suggest checking your registry for any Qcache keys that may be causing it to start up on a windows start up.

Do an anti-virus scan. Try AVG (http://www.grisoft.com/us/us_index.php). They're scans are free and I heard they're good for catching stuff like these. Also, if you haven't already, try any anti-virus software already have on your computer.

After doing a search on google for QCache, it seems like a Windows Program, but maybe I'm not finding valid results. Anyone else have any info or experience with Qcache?
