Sorry but this may be long. A few days ago I was online with yahoo messenger
and I tried to go to a site and realized that my homepage addy had been
changed, I figured spyware. I didn't think much about it until my wallpaper
changed to something that appears to be an ad for spyware removal software
with a "hotlink". I signed off and tried to run my spyware program and got an
error message that it could not be loaded. I then tried to run my virus
program, same thing. I then tried to get online to make sure my virus program
was updated, same thing. It has also did this with several other programs as
well as not allowing me to reset my computer to an earlier date (system
recovery) nor will it allow me to get rid of the spyware ad wallpaper. Has
anyone else ran into this problem? Any help or info would be greatly
appreciated. I can not find any info about a virus with these symptoms. Thanks
