    Hi, I am new to the forums so HEY! :)

    I am in need of some serious help. I really hope someone can help me. Ok here is my problem. I use Firefox, and not IE, but my problem happens to both of them. When I try to visit Google.com or Yahoo.com, or even MSN.com it gives me a white page with the word soon at the top left corner. I have no idea why it is doing this. I think it is a virus or something. BTW I hate Norton, because I ran it, and it does not find anything wrong.

    Another thing that is wrong is that in my C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Local Settings\Temp folder, little .gif files keep appearing. They keep making themselves. Their names are aaad, aahk, aabf, and so on. I delete them, but they keep making themselves. Sort of like a program is looping them to keep being made. Well I hope that you can help me. :)

    Thanks!

    Sounds more like you have Spyware than a virus or trojan... but is Norton upto date with latest virus definition files?

    a good place to start is to run through these steps and if some spyware is highlighted post in the spyware section of the forum as the guys in there are superb at removing those
