After a power outage, my neighbor took their computer to a Tech because their computer would not load Windows. The Tech told her it was because of spyware and then formatted her computer. Was he telling the truth? and I'm sorry I don't know what the or even if there was an error when the system tried to load the OS.

    Hi LazyByNature Welcome to Short-Media Virus/Spyware Removal Forums.

    Please download Deckard's System Scanner (DSS) and save it to your Desktop.
    • Close all other windows before proceeding.
    • Double-click on dss.exe and follow the prompts.
    • When it has finished, DSS will open two Notepads: main.txt and extra.txt
    • Use Save As to save both Notepad files to your Desktop and post them in your next reply.
