Is there another way of tackling viruses apart from using the system recovery, installing anti-virus or formatting.... Help! Plz.

Yes but it involves a big hammer, why can't you install anti virus programs, if you are unable to download them direct onto the computer you can use a memory stick and use portable apps

Ok.. I will give it a trial.

What anti-virus programme are you thinking of installing? There are a lot of free programmes out there - I use Avast, myself.

I'm planning to use ESET anti-virus.

if you dont want to or cant install anti vrus for whatever reason you can download live anti vrus discs and burn them to disc and boot from them but running a proper anti virus program is more secure , never used eset myself im currently using super antspyware

I've not used it myself, but I have heard it praised on other forums. I guess it's like everything else - it's all down to personal taste and preference.
