Department of Justice MoneyPak Scam - Can't Start Even in Safe Mode

[jonchen1]

Hey guys,

So I guess this has been going around lately. I've tried starting the computer multiple times on regular boot mode, safe mode, safe mode with networking and the thing keeps popping up within seconds. I have no idea how to get rid of it and I have no idea where to start. Any help would be amazing.

It's on the only Windows computer I have at home. My other two computers are Macs, if that information is relevant.

The computer also happens to be running on Windows XP.

Alright, well I downloaded it and I burned the .exe file onto a CD from my Mac. I tried to boot my Windows computer on with it but it won't go through, saying something about Selected boot device not available.

Could it be because I burned from a Mac?

I don't know, can you try the cd in another computer to see if it works.

I came across this also:

if your computer is not giving you the option to boot from dvd/rom, restart computer, then hit f12 tab down to system setup, scroll down to boot sequence hit enter and make sure there is a check mark next to boot from dvd rom.. this was my problem.. check and hit exit and save changes, restart computer, f12 again... boot from dvd rom should be there

Let me know.....MrC

I have tried that through the setup. Unfortunately, I don't have another Windows computer to try this on. I believe Macs don't use .exe files, so that might be the problem. Is there any other way of going about fixing this?
