Whutamess, i don't know about that particular virus. Thats a wild one. I will tell you an experience i had with mine about 3 months ago. My computer would go slower and slower. I had Norton on it. All updated. I ran virus checks, defrags, spyware every day to try to get rid of it to no avail.
Finally i took it to a reputable comp place to have them fix it, because surfin the net was next to impossible by then. A couple days later i had it back good as new. They installed free software called AVG anit-virus. Which i and others on this board highly recommend. |

I would be sure and do a system restore if you havent already. 50/50 chance it will fix it. Be sure and go back far enough to do the trick.

Before I finished reading your post I was thinking... "Shit naw I'm not taking this to anyone". "I'd reinstall XP before I do that". But after finishing it I see you were recommending the software. Is it freeware? nm I'll search for it thanks a mill. Rep your way. |

Just downloaded it.
I'm gonna wait to see if the SpySweeper sweep did anything to fix it. If not, I'll install it and run it to see if it does the trick. Thanks again. |

That's cheating. I wanna know what files or software is causing it to do this. This one is a tricky one. I'm usually able to find the culprit with hijackthis but this one went "deep deep undercover". It must be a federally. ~Bluestreak reference. |

It was one of the 2 sites listed in the Topic header. I only use Internet Explorer for those 2 sites only because the way Firefox can't handle the java. Other than that it's all Firefox. |
