Hey all, I am new here. I got this virus the other day. I pops up and says I need to install XP Security Center. I didnt download, but the icon was there.
My husband and I have both tried deleting it manually, but it still comes back, and there is a popup in the bottom tool bar.

I just downloaded Spybot today, and now I cant get it to open. I've deleted it, and tried downloading it again. I've tried right clicking, and clicking open. Still nothing.

I do have Ad-Adware 2007. Is that interfering? Should I delete it?

Thanks.

Hello,

No. :)

Please follow the procedure in this link: "BEFORE you POST"(READ this Procedure BEFORE Requesting Assistance) (http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=288)

Skip the Spybot-S&D scan for now.

Then start your own thread in the Malware Removal Forum (http://forums.spybot.info/forumdisplay.php?f=22) where a helper will advise you as soon as available.

Cheers.
