If you reformat its gone. You must be doing something to get it back.

It is like one, it controls the PC AVG isn't crap, plus I bet you don't have AVG 8.0 full version. What anti-virus do you have

I have kaspersky and tbh I think its much better than avg

Run me a hijack log and upload it to rapidshare. Then PM it to me or post it.

Have you tried AVG 8.0 yet?

I have a feeling this might be MediaTickets which I had. It randomly opens ads, and can be bundled with those stupid rogue antivirus/spyware programs.

Someone has controlled your PC using a program, never add someone you don't know, as they can find your IP address and do loads of stuff, also don't accept anything from random people.

You don't know what your talking about.

Run a anti virus scan.

Then tell us which virus it is.

The virus is obv crypted onto your hard drive, therefore reformatting won't do anything becuase you can't fully remove everything from your hard drive.

a. You didn't format your HD fully
b. You need to reformat it a number of times to remove all of the DATA
C. You need a new hard drive

Jesus calm down he isn't gonna need a new hard drive fgs so obviuosly you don't know what your talking about


http://www.ccleaner.com/
http://www.superantispyware.com/.

download both of them and use whatever virus scanner you want (I recommend kaspersky - if anyone quotes me and says anything about avg I will seriously hunt you down and stick your ******* computer mouse up your ****).. Make sure you have all the latest updates for everything, then run the cleaner in ccleaner. After you have done that scan with your av and then scan with the free version of superantispyware.

If you google the ip that keeps popping up you would see that its just some stupid malware.

Its probably just hidden in temp internet files or something (which is what ccleaner cleans)

btw that method has helped few people fix the problem

That is helpful, except Ccleaner will not help - it's not likely it's hiding out in the temps.

What it looks like is the trojan is trying to direct you to a page to download more viruses (Yes, the plural is viruses not virii. That is incorrectly used by hackers etc and does not follow usual pattern in the english language)
yet the page is no longer available. So it would be a good idea to disconnect yourself from the internet and as said before, reformat your HD a few times and then get a decent anti virus e.g kaspersky or NOD32.
