      Well, you have to much "security" turned on then because that link is a simple html page with two jpgs on it.
      Dave, I guess what you really wanted to say was, good for you and just as well.

          You are chasing down an infection on your machine currently?...........

          You did post that link?...........

          It did get blocked by my machine and in particular the Adshield component of AdAware?........ (see pedigree attached?) You did not get the infection from that link then I take it ?.......

          I still dont know (and by the looks of it dont want to know) what on that page.

            A long shot...reinstall the latest service pack some times if you are lucky it will replace the fecked files..

            or maybe try doing a recovery install.

            But I guess it must be about time for reformat install anywze.....

              LvR, your popup blocker is FUBAR or something... there's nothing even remotely wrong with his page, the source is very simple plain HTML with some text, a little formatting, and a couple JPEG's.

                    Why do people almost allways reformat when they get a virus?

                    Follow the instructions on f-secures or symantecs site and you can remove the virus registry info in a couple of minutes!
                    According to the latest official figures, 43% of all statistics are totally worthless...

                      I can't start anything first of all. Any .exe I click on fails. Secondly, it's been about a year or so since I reinstalled, I'm due, so I decided it was time. It is more hassle than it's worth to me. god knws what it did to my registry.

                        I just got 4 e-mails, two of them (from a spaming PC shop here) had the W32.Swen.A@mm ! worm, one was a pseudo Microsoft security upgrade attachement and the last was a return error for a suposedly sent e-mail to someone at yahoo.
                        My ISP's server detected the worm, NAV 2003 detected and repaired them. I deleted everything anyway.
                        Any posibility there might be something left ?

                          rename the registry editor to .com and run it .. should work ( I had to do that for a virus once)

                              No, I had a ghost backup so I just popped in the backup and 12 minutes later I had my system back I love ghost.

                                My mate has probably just been infected with a virus/worm/spyware.

                                AVG has detected msblast on his machine, the Nachi worm and he has several dodgy looking processes using a lot of memory on start up. He only formatted about 2 weeks ago as well
