    Might want to go to the Malware Removal section of the forums. Follow the instructions, and a trained person will help figure whats up with your system.

    Beatson:

    www.spybotupdate.com = Safer Networking #1 (Europe) and is a legitimate download site for updates. My anti-virus (McAfee) gave no indication of a problem with the updates.

    I would like to suggest that if you ever encounter a similar problem in the future that you include the name of avti-virus product you are using, the file that it detected the virus in and the name of the virus that it detected in that file.

    Getting an answer is one thing, learning is another.
