Hey guys. Having a problem with the garda virus on the young lads laptop. This is the second time it's happened and the last time I ran the system in safe mode and went into the C:/ProgramData and found the .exe file and deleted it. This time when I boot in safe mode, I sign in using the password and it says welcome for about 2 seconds then before it actually boots up it says logging off and shutting down before turning off. Anyone know what can be done now???
