Getting rid of the LovSan virus

Hey, MJ. Thankx a lot man. Trust me without your help I would've gone insane today. You definitely know what you're talking about. Ever since I got that LovSan virus in my computer, it would restart my system as soon as I got connected to the internet. Despite the fact that I had downloaded the patch to get rid of that damn virus, I still couldn't install it.I would get the following message: "Setup could not verify the integrity of the file update.inf.Make sure the cryptographic service is running on this computer." I have tried other people's tips so as to changing the cryptographic services and running commands in the cmd. However, yours was the magic one that resolved all my problems. Steps are following: 1)Start Menu 2)Run 3)Type cmd.exe 4) RD /S /Q %SystemRoot%\System32\Catroot2 Then try to install the patch. It worked for me and hopefully, it should help you guys as well.
