Security warning

I'm having trouble trying to get rid of this virus I have. I've tred almost everything and nothing seems to work. I have a red circle with an exclaimation mark in my system tray that says "Security warning: your computer may be infected with harmful or unwanted software!" How would I get rid of this?

Thanks

It removed the virus/spyware and my computer seems to be running faster than before. There's no more red circle with an exclaimation mark in it. Thank you for the help & giving me the link to the sticky ^^ :bigthumb:.
 
hi Blargh,

good. happy safe surfing out there.
for your reference:


Be careful of what you download, and where you download it from. Many programs come bundled with extra software.You may be installing more than you think. Learn more about the program, Does it come bundled with other "3rd party" programs? If you search hard enough you can always find a "clean" alternative to any software. Stay away from warez,porn and crack sites. Becarful what you download from file sharing networks. If you are not sure, scan it with your Antivirus app. DO YOU TRUST THE SOURCE? Check this database:Spyware Guide or this: Library before installing free/shareware.

Make sure you keep your Windows OS/Browser current by visiting Windows update
occasionaly to download and install any critical updates and service packs. These will patch flaws/bugs that can be exploited.

Adjust your browser settings: Change your(active x) settings in IE. With IE open go to tools, internet options, security tab. Click on the internet globe, then custom level. Set the first option "download signed active x controls" to prompt, the next two to disable. Read more:
Working with Internet Explorer 6 Security Use XP? consider using IE 7.0
Many exploits are directed at Internet Explorer, you dont have to use it. Try a different browser. You can have and use more than one browser on your computer.
Like Firefox or Opera


Install a Firewall:A firewall will help to control what comes in from the internet and what leaves your computer to the internet. Zone Alarm is a free and easy to use firewall, that will provide in and outbound protection.
Zone Alarm
OutPost Lite
Jetico Personal Firewall
Look n Stop

Outlook Express with the default settings is not secure. It will run scripts, download images etc, just like a browser, but this was the old Outlook Express. Service Pack 2 has made huge improvements to Outlook, but just like with Internet Explorer, you dont have to use it.
try Pegasus E-Mail.

Make sure you have and keep updated Antivirus software
Free for home users:
avast! 4 Home Edition Download
AVG free version 7.0
AntiVir Personal Edition
Clam Win

Download one or two of these, install and update before using:(if these are constantly finding malware, then you need to make changes to your browser and or your habits)
SuperAntiSpyware
Spybot Search and destroy
Ad-Aware SE Personal edition
Microsoft Windows Defender
CounterSpy

Becarful with spyware "removers and scanners"-- there are many "rogue/suspect" programs that "claim to remove" spyware.Check here first.


AntiTrojan software to fill in the gap:
a2 free
Ewido Anti-Spyware
Trojan Hunter
Tauscan trial version

Other programs to consider:
Process Guard stop events/processes with user intervention
SpywareBlaster add security to IE
IE-SPYAD adds adware peddlers sites/domains to IE restricted zone
ATF cleaner (W2K,XP only) cleans out temp files,history, cookies etc.

hi Blargh,

good question.

this: digstream.exe, part of Digstream checks for new video. not really sure why avg is flagging it. you should go to there website and read there privacy policy.

http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/startups/digstream.exe-1292.html

the system volume is your system restore points. sometimes stuff can get archived in there so if you did a system restore you could put the malware back in place, but in your case it looks like just a .dll, they are harmless without a .exe to go with them. just to be sure we can make new clean restore points. you do it like this:( a account that has admin. rights)

1. Turn off System Restore. (deletes old possibly infected restore point)
On the Desktop, right-click My Computer.
Click Properties.
Click the System Restore tab.
Check Turn off System Restore.
Click Apply, and then click OK.

2. Reboot.

3. Turn ON System Restore.(new restore points on a clean system)
On the Desktop, right-click My Computer.
Click Properties.
Click the System Restore tab.
UN-Check *Turn off System Restore*.
Click Apply, and then click OK, then reboot
