I wonder if anyone's interested in this nasty unknown I got on wednesday?

W

Webbster, Daniel

I'm going to buy a new HD and re-install XP, but if anyone is interested.

Preface: I know the link where I picked this up but I'm not posting it here.

*

I was searching on google for song lyrics in firefox.

something looked interesting and I clicked on the cached link.

firefox closed very quickly.

since it was early in the morning I followed the same procedure. stupid man.

what I caught did something to the wallpaper, I think it turned my desktop
into a black background active page.

The IE browser usage drives the processor to 100 percent immediately. Other
steps will drive up the processor as well.

The wallpaper screensaver functions are muzzled, can't do anything really.

There was white text above the sys tray on the screen, not boxed, about
"windows security central" warning me, and then an icon in the tray begging
me to click it for virus removal.

When I reboot my own screensaver wallpaper shows for a moment.

I installed norton antivirus from CD (a new purchase yesterday) but the web
browser firefox is not allowed on a few on the online scan sites I went to.

Ummm, I was interested in this prior thread in this group:

se_frm/thread/3badd28e44822940/d086c3d9a59cd5b7?lnk=st&q=virus+%22active+desk
top%22+xp&rnum=6&hl=en#d086c3d9a59cd5b7

If anyone wants the link to the virus or trojan let me know how to send it to
you.

I thank you for the time and services you provide. It went along very well.

On the very last item, I got the list txt from the pandascan.

Unblocker will not open or cooperate, I did also uninstall and try the next
earlier version, 1.8.3 to 1.8.2 I think. It's in the right-click as well but
I can't figure out much with it's method of non-operation.

It's a long text file of items but I do have my computer back and I need the
money for gas instead of a new hard drive. ;)

The panda service is very reasonably priced.

Sorry , I couldn't understand your post above . Unlocker works automatically
with its Unlocker Assistant . You only need to install it , it is really
simple softwares and then when you boot in Safe Mode you can also load it
because it is not a service of Windows + use it to unlock pottentially locked
files.

You can also boot in Safe Mode and try to delete all the stuff Panda found
manually without Unlocker.Yes , it is good software .

If this doesn't help , goto the link I gave you >here
