Oh dear not good....You have a virus.. The only AV that I know of to get rid of this virus is AVG, it is free...So if you aren't running that AV the best thing to do is disable the one you have and download AVG, scan your computer, get rid of the virus and then you can unistall AVG and make your normal AV active again...

AVG download.....http://free.grisoft.com/doc/2/lng/us/tpl/v5

Angry Why???

Thank you for the tip about AVG...it picked up a bunch of stuff that my $129 Nortons software failed to do...how could this happen? I keep my software up to date and it is a complete package including a firewall, spyware and virus protection.....

The free AV's are half the time better than the paid one's...Some people swear by Norton and other's think it's crap...I think when your subscription runs out let it go and just use a free one like AVG...In the meantime every so often disable Norton and install AVG and do a scan....
