i have found a few things... ill give them a shot

    * All programs will be blocked, including anti-virus and anti-spyware software
    * Internet Explorer and Firefox browsers will be hijacked and will display fake security alerts when surfing the Web
    * A window impersonating Windows Security Center stating that you should purchase XP Internet Security 2010
    * Numerous fake alerts stating that your PC security is compromised or that you have various malware running on your computer. Don't click on these alerts


Thats what the virus does... effing annoying

best of luck, I've gotten a few viruses in the past and always managed to remove them with a mix of internet and safe mode and fast clicking on occasion.

I removed something similar to this from co-workers computer not too long ago.  A real pain in the ass.

Download "Hijack This" from download.com(you might have to do in on another computer since yours will probably not be very cooperative) and save or copy it to your hard drive.  Don't install yet.

Restart and reboot in safe mode(you cannot remove it unless you are in safe mode).  Install the program and then run a scan.  If you are familiar with processes, startups, active x, and BHOs that normally run in windows you should spot the bad ones right away.  

Select the bad ones and remove them.  You might have to do this more than once.  Also run any other malware scanners or anti-virus programs you already have installed while you are still in safe mode.

That should do it.  Good luck and be careful surfing... those girls aren't real.   Smiley

I had to download files to my flash drive... then i plug it into my computer and ran a register fix... then it would allow me to run a malware removal software.  I think it has fixed it so far... i am running every kind of virus removal software known to man. Smiley
