4 computers have fallen victim...
Hey guy, you know that facebook virus thing? Well apparently my brother's computer, dad's laptop, and both of my cousins computers have got it... They all get to the windows loading screen and then restart. Is there anyway to fix them?

Boot into safe mode and run a couple virus scans using a mixture of online and offline virus scanners.
I would recommend Malwarebytes and Clamwin.

Re-install the OS would be the remaining option. A clean install to rid of anything, along with a full format.

why all 4 computers? do you have the original disk? maybe startup repair would work other then that the most you could possibly do is reformat i'm thinking. Maybe someone else would have a better idea how to grab the data off. What anti virus were you using on those computers?

Ha, it doesn't matter what anti-virus they had(avg though) but even if they had some insane one, they would still get it, they click on everything....
