bogus message-box? do you mean your desktop has "it" as a background?
Which 3 programs did you use?
Scan the system at Kaspersky Online Scanner
http://www.kaspersky.com/virusscanner
Attention: Kaspersky Online Scanner 7.0 may not run successfully while
another antivirus program is running. If you have Anti-Virus software
installed, please temporarily disable your AV protection before running the
Kaspersky Online Scanner. Reenable it after the scan is finished.
During this run, make sure your browser does not block popup windows. Have
patience while some screens populate.
1) Click the Kapersky Online Scanner button. You'll see a popup window.
2) Accept the agreement
3) Accept the installation of the required ActiveX object ( XP SP2-SP3 will
show this in the Information Bar )
4) For XP SP2-SP3, click the Install button when prompted
5) The necessary files will be downloaded and installed. Please have plenty
of patience.
6) After Kaspersky AntiVirus Database is updated, look at the Scan box.
7) Click the My Computer line
8 ) Be infinetely patient, the scan is comprehensive and, unlike other
online antivirus scanners, will detect all malwares
9) When the scan is completed there will be an option to Save report as a
..txt file. Click that button.
Copy and paste the report into your reply.
Re-enable your antivirus program.
Kapersky Online Scanner can be uninstalled later on from Add or Remove
Programs in the Control Panel, if desired.

tried changing wallpaper etc., but no effect. I have scanned with:
McAfee, Panda, Rogue Remover, wcsvcFix V1.o for Windows; they all report no
virus but the banner stays there.. in the middle of the screen. It doesn't
seem to affect anything but ME! I don't like having something there I did not
put there on purpose!
Getting in and out of safe mode can be tedious if you use the f8 method.VEE said:what do I do if it looks like its in safe mode?
last know good configuration doesnt seem to work.
