Remember you can download corrective programs onto a USB stick memory and plug it into the sick
computer and install. (if the malware prevents downloading it)
One possibility is to get the latest complete AVG {or other} (with current definitions) built in
and install it.
Another idea is to "restore" the computer to a past incarnation, being a LINUX
user I don't know exactly how to do it, other than reboot with [F8] pressed
and select "restore." (then upgrade your anti-viral definitions)
