    I need help with a virus- I am not actually sure it is a virus because I ran a Norton scan on my entire computer and it did not detect a thing. Everytime MSN messenger is up it sends this message to all the contacts that are online:ha ha is this really you? www.messengertools.org/msn.php?session=XrdRDCyLT6275user. Please help, I have ran CC Cleaner, Adaware, Spybot (all in safe mode). I need to know what is causing it and how to get rid of it. Can you help?

    Please follow the steps below:

    - 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.

    - 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.


    After doing ALL of the above you still have a problem make sure you have booted to normal mode and run the steps in the below link to properly use HijackThis:
