Removing ScorpionSaver from Windows 8 (dds doesn't work)


Recommended Posts

Hi, I recently built a computer for my friend and he accidently clicked on a google ad instead of the real Java website and installed scorpionsaver.

 

I tried reading some of the forum posts for help and following the instructions, although the dds.scr and dd.com files don't seem to want to run in Windows 8 and complain about being in compatibiltiy mode. I think I'm a bit over my head here and was wondering if anyone could offer a helping hand.
