    This problem started a few days ago after starting to use either Yahoo Messenger or Windows Live Messenger. After using them for about 30 minutes I saw a dos box flash briefly on the screen after which I got an icon in my systray and a message saying 'System Detected Virus Activities!' Blah Dee Blah Dee Blah.
    If the message balloon is clicked on it directs my browser to Virusbursters.Com

    I've tried running Spyhunter, AdAware & SpyBot and I also have ZoneAlarm running at start-up, all fully updated with the latest definitions but nothing will clear it. Spyhunter found stuff but wont delete anything unless I buy it and AdAware said it deleted stuff but the problem still pops up :eek:(

    I've downloaded HJT v1.99.1 & AIDA and followed your instructions so I've attached my log files from AdAware, AIDA & HJT, I hope someone can help because this is really beginning to bug me.

    Cheers.

    Welcome to MajorGeeks.com, please follow our standard cleaning procedures:

    http://www.majorgeeks.com/images/grenade.gif Run ALL the steps in this Sticky thread READ & RUN ME FIRST Before Asking for Support

    • Make sure you check version numbers and get all updates.
    http://www.majorgeeks.com/images/grenade.gif Very Important: Make sure you tell us the results from running the tutorial...was anything found? Were you unable to complete any of the scans?...Were you unable to download any of the tools?...Did you do the on-line scans as suggested? etc.

    http://www.majorgeeks.com/images/grenade.gifAfter doing ALL of the above and you still have a problem, make sure you have booted to normal mode and run the steps in the below thread to properly use HijackThis and attach the log:

    http://www.majorgeeks.com/images/grenade.gif Downloading, Installing, and Running HijackThis
    • Make sure you also rename HijackThis.exe as suggested in the procedures. Use analyse.exe for the new name. This is very important due to some new infections going around..
    http://www.majorgeeks.com/images/grenade.gif In your next post, please make sure you attach the following logs and that you have run these scans in the following order:
    • CounterSpy - ONLY IF you were not able to run Windows Defender
    • Bitdefender - from step 6
    • Panda Scan - from step 6
    • runkeys.txt - the log from GetRunKey.bat
    • newfiles.txt - the log from ShowNew.bat
    • HijackThis
    NOTE: You can only attach 3 files in a single message so it will require that you use two messages to attach all of these logs!

    Right then, tried the link you sent again and it sends me to a page saying I need to flush my DNS. I typed 'Ipconfig /Flushdns' in 'Start/Run' but it still wont open.

    I've downloaded Windows Defender, Bit Defender, and 'Newfiles' from another post but can't find 'Runkeys' and 'PandaScan' doesn't seem to want to install.

    I've run what I can and added the logs to the zip file. If you need the Panda scan or Runkeys can u send the install files or links to where I can find them.

    Thanx again

    I think it's gone. I ran thro NEARLY everything on your list (God that takes a long time :eek:) ) then deleted everything out of my prefetch folder as advised by a friend who has had the same problem. It seems to have got rid of it.
    I'll let you know if it comes back.

    Thanx for your help.
