    I keep getting an icon in my toolbar that says:

    Security Alert: NetWorm-i.Virus@fp
    Type: Virus/Network Worm
    Damage Level: High
    Description: Virus that infects executable files.
    Recommendation: Delete/quarantine immediately
    Protection: Click this baloon to download certified Antivirus Software

    This in not the only message i get from this balloon and they keep coming up every 2 minutes.
    If I click on the balloons it tries to install bestseller antivirus. How can I get rid of this thing. I read somewhere that this may be a part of a program called Security toolbar 7.1 which is also on my computer and I think is causing many pop ups from IE saying that I have viruses. I cant get rid of this thing either. Can someone help me get rid of these things?:cry Help would be appreciated.:)

    1. Download this file - Combofix.exe
    2. Double click combofix.exe & follow the prompts.
    3. When finished, it will produce a log for you. Attach this log to your next reply

    Note:

    Do not mouseclick combofix's window while it is running. That may cause it to stall.

    Then do: READ & RUN ME FIRST. Malware Removal Guide

    Attach the ComboFix log along with the other requested logs.

    Ive got a problem. When in safe mode the explorer always shuts down and starts back up again. This causes the computer to slow down and the message which asks if I want to system restore to keep coming back up. Also I have a program called SmitFraudFix. This seems to remove the problem but then after a reboot the problem comeback.

    Here is the Log

    ComboFix has removed a lot of nasties ....can you not run the other scans in normal mode?

    I really need to see the ShowNew, GetRUnKeys and HJT logs.
