Sorry to sound so desperate, but i've got a major problem. My roomate used my PC while I was away and somehow got it infected with a nasty Trojan (a bunch actually). I managed to cure most but I was still having a problem where all search engine results in IE would be nothing to do with my search queary, they'd all be ads. The only way I could search in IE was to type my request directly in the address bar and let AVG anti-virus take over and return "safe" search results. That got annoying since I couldn't use real engines like Google or Yahoo, so I started using Google Chrome as my browser and everything was fine, leading me to believe the Trojan infected IE. I think it was called "BHO.JEW", since that was the last one to pop up that I can't get rid of. Until today that is.....
AVG detected one called "BHO.KKD" and it said quarantining it could cause system instability (it was found in the system32 area, just like the ".JEW" one). Well, ever since that my computer won't access Internet. My VNC server (that I use with Jaadu Connect/Jaadu VNC for my phone) won't connect, WinAmp Remote won't connect, and none of my Internet browsers connect (IE, Chrome, or FireFox). They all give the "page cannot be displayed" error messages you get when not connected. I know it's my PC because my 360, PS3, and iPhone are all still able to access the Internet, so it's not the modem or the router. Also, I can't use system restore, every point I try to restore to says I can't (after going through the whole process and rebooting, it tells me on startup that it couldn't ve restored, even though the point was safe). There was a trojan found in the system restore folder, so I guess that option is screwed. I've run Malwarebytes Anti-Malware, AVG, SpyBot, and Ad-Aware, all but AVG gave found none of the Trojans, and AVG said Quarantine/removal will make my system unstable.
That brings me to this question (sorry for the long leadup, wanted to give detailed backround info on my issue). Since I can't seem to rid the Trojans, nor can I access Internet on the PC to try and DL other programs that may help me get rid of them, I'm just going to suck it up and factory restore. However, I have YEARS and YEARS worth of music and pictures that I can't lose. I want to toss all of it on my iPhone (it's a 32GB 3GS, there's plenty of room to do so) so that once I restore I can put the stuff back. The music and pics and movies are the only thing I'm worried about. Programs can be re-installed, but the music collection has been built for about 10yrs now, and the pictures and videos even longer, documenting all my surf trips around the world and just family and friends in general, they are priceless.
I have iPhoneBrowser already installed on the PC, I'm just wondering where I have to put all these files once in the phone? Is there a specific folder they have to go in so I can take them back off later, or can I just store them in whatever folder I want? I just need to keep 'em safe for the hour or so it takes to do a full restore and put iPhoneBrowser and iTunes back on my PC.
Any help is GREATLY appreciated, and again, sorry for the length if the post.
