how do i get rid of the myspace and facebook virus 'networm koobface'?!?

[Steph B]

i got this virus when i opened my inbox on facebook and it's really slowed my computer down. i've tried all sorts of spyware and stuff like that and it says it's gone but it hasnt and my internet is so slow. i was just wondering if there is any other way of getting rid of it or something.
thanks =]

spyware isn't that good it doesnt pick all the viruses up you could do what i did and format your computer but you will need recovery discs for after you've done it that cleared my laptop and its been fast and fine ever since good luck

How to remove Fake Software, Spyware, Trojans and Viruses:

Download, install, update and scan your computer with both SuperantiSpyware and Malwarebytes, delete what ever they find, if this fails to completely remove the virus/spyware download then update Avast and run a boot scan (click schedule boot-time scan and restart your PC), all the software below is free and safe to use.

Malwarebytes: http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php

Avast Anti-Virus: http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html

To protect your PC in the future you need to use anti-virus software and a firewall, id recommend using Avast and Comodo Pro firewall both are very effective and completely free, you should also switch to Firefox 3 if you are browsing with IE as its much safer. (links on my profile)
