Yes, I'm in that sites reading, but the removal tool didn't find it. Will run it in safe mode to see if changes something. But I am begining to lose faith....


PS: Gentelmen, the bugger is terminated, killed, destroyed, obliterated!!!!!!!

I tried what many people said that had done the work, hitman 3.5 and it did. 3 things: the bugger made my IE access the net by a proxy server (possibly one specific to it) and the program deleted one shell.exe file and svchost.exe file also. After rebooting, went to google and had a normal and fast search and clicked on many sites, and it went there, no more virus paradise!

I had almost the same thing with Java, it effected firefox, every time I fired it up it tried to update some application, had to exit quickly, this was a while ago, I tried uninstalling firefox and reinstalling, fired it up and the same thing starts, both avira and ad-aware didn't find anything so I just saved my Outlook Express, game saves etc then re-ghosted my machine, best thing in the long run I reckon!

Same here, had a similiar malware that injected itself in some key system files mostly in the System32 folder so the virus just wouldn't die untill I did some heavy cleaning and restoring a bit frustrating and it really made me want to hurt people that create this kind of garbage.
