Welcome to the Gamingforce Interactive Forums.
GFF is a hellhole full of elitists who chat about everything EXCEPT games. We have a team of dedicated moderators who will ban your ass on the slightest provocation, constant member-organized activities that you are not allowed to participate in, and plenty of custom features, including our unique journal system where you can post entries that will be completely ignored. If this is your first visit, be sure to check out the FAQ or our GFWiki. You will have to register before you can post. Although membership is completely free (and gets rid of the pesky advertisement unit underneath this message) we do not recommend that you sign up, because you will get kicked in the nuts repeatedly.

Cannot find thegame32.exe
Downloaded a file, it contained a virus that copied itself to the windows folder. I deleted it and the file that carried it, and yet now when I start up my laptop, windows tries to open the file.

So far the problem is not debilitating, but it is annoying. Any idea on how to fix it? :S

Start -> Run -> msconfig -> Startup Tab -> See if it's in the list, and if so, uncheck.

And if it's not there, Start -> Run -> regedit, and do a search for "thegame32.exe" in case that virus is started as a service.

You just lost thegame.


And though we are not now that strength which in old days
Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are---
One equal temper of heroic hearts,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.
WHAT IF I HAD DIED?!

As late as it is, thanks for the help, worked like a charm. Been in ohio without my laptop. Ugh.

And as for virus software...I just got the free AVG (very broke) along with the usual anti spyware programs.
