malware scan patch

[spunkybabe]

Has any gotten notice of their computer affected by malware and asked to
click the following link: www.registryscan.cc/?q=scan

the only problem I have lately is from service pack 3. It was an automatic
download and has caused my system to run very slow and error messages come up
all the time. It also automatically downloaded explorer 7. I did not want it.
Can not get the thing off either.

thanks

That appears to be a fraudulent site as mentioned in Alex Eckelberry's blog:

You should disable any unusual auto-starting entries and do a full scan of
your system.
