    Hi all, I'm having quite a bit of trouble with my computer at the moment, I have followed the stickied instructions and still have the same problem. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    My computer is jacked, to put it bluntly, and I have no clue how to fix it.
    It seems to have a spyware program on it that is running on/with Windows itself, I have all my Program files on my desktop, but behind that is a message reading

    WARNING!
    YOU'RE IN DANGER!



    ALL YOU DO WITH COMPUTER IS STORED FOREVER IN YOUR HARD DISK. WHEN YOU VISIT SITES, SEND EMAILS... ALL YOUR ACTIONS ARE LOGGED. AND IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO REMOVE THEM WITH STANDARD TOOLS. YOUR DATA IS STILL AVAILABLE FOR FORENSICS. AND IN SOME CASES FOR YOUR BOSS, YOUR FRIENDS, YOUR WIFE, YOUR CHILDREN.

    Every site you or somebody or even something, like spyware, opened in your browser, with all images, and all downloaded and maybe later removed movies or mp3 songs - ARE STILL THERE and could broke your life!


    SECURE YOURSELF RIGHT NOW!

    Removal instructions

    Which are in white letters on a black background, blocking my usual desktop background. This program also has Task Manager disabled, and tells me that the administrator is blocking it. I also found an icon on my desktop, called ! Protect Yourself. It's an internet link to the same website provided on the weblink. Another icon was also there, called Teen F***K Pics, and was also a weblink to the same site as the other two. The website is http://213.159.117.130/?affid=NAT-25 Unfortunately, it was my grandmother who was on my computer doing ebay uploads when this happened, and as the message looks like a warning that something is wrong, she clicked into it. The website shows your IP address and other info at the top, and asks you to purchase their software to fix your computer. The link given on the website is for a Smart Security Privacy Protection Tool.

    I used the stickied guides on how to check for these, and came up with nothing, although the MCafee Stinger program found a virus named Kernel32.dll and deleted it. after running safe mode, scanning the computer, and having the online programs scan, I still have the same message in the background, and no software has been able to recognize it. Any help is appreciated, as I don't have the slightest idea what to do.
