Hi,
I am running Xp home and after my son was "playing" on the net , found I
hade 2 icons on the desk top- 1 for a poker game and one called rate my body.
Besides being beside myself i deleted the icons and have run "start up
buddy" to no avail.
I am on cable but ie explorer starts automatically on start up and asks to
connect (like when i was on dial up) I then click no and work offline
(although cable is running and i still have access).
The pc is running really slowly and seems to be processing a lot of data or
maybe trying to start ie explorer as i am using firefox meanwhile.
I hav a full up to date Norton anti virus and spydoctor.
I have tried to restore to about 10 different points but keep getting cannot
restore to this point.

Does anyone have any ideas???

Download MULTI_AV.EXE from the URL --
http://www.ik-cs.com/programs/virtools/Multi_AV.exe

To use this utility, perform the following...
Execute; Multi_AV.exe { Note: You must use the default folder C:\AV-CLS }
Choose; Unzip
Choose; Close

Execute; C:\AV-CLS\StartMenu.BAT
{ or Double-click on 'Start Menu' in C:\AV-CLS }

NOTE: You may have to disable your software FireWall or allow WGET.EXE to go
through your
FireWall to allow it to download the needed AV vendor related files.

C:\AV-CLS\StartMenu.BAT -- { or Double-click on 'Start Menu' in C:\AV-CLS}
This will bring up the initial menu of choices and should be executed in Normal
Mode.
This way all the components can be downloaded from each AV vendor's web site.
The choices are; Sophos, Trend, McAfee, Kaspersky, Exit this menu and Reboot the
PC.

You can choose to go to each menu item and just download the needed files or you
can
download the files and perform a scan in Normal Mode. Once you have downloaded
the files
needed for each scanner you want to use, you should reboot the PC into Safe Mode
[F8 key
during boot] and re-run the menu again and choose which scanner you want to run
in Safe
Mode. It is suggested to run the scanners in both Safe Mode and Normal Mode.

When the menu is displayed hitting 'H' or 'h' will bring up a more comprehensive
PDF help
file. http://www.ik-cs.com/multi-av.htm

I am a little scared by all the detail involved but think I may have fixed
the problem (fingers crossed)
What I discovered was VSMON.EXE was running a marathon on my cpu it also
seemed to be in battle with ie explorer. I know this to be associated with
adaware and totally deleted adaware (as per their instructions} then re
installed after turning off system restore.
I thank you both as I have some pretty cool programmes on board now.
Just hope this "thing" doesnt come back.

Plaese bring your PC to a prefessional. You have NOT done anything worthwhile.

Let the professional clean your PC.

Hi !

This computer seems to be infected . Your Norton is not getting it .

The first thing I would do is to completely remove Norton and have something
better . Anyway ...

Goto Control Panel -> Internet Options -> choose "Connections" tab and
choose "Never dial a connection" . Press OK .

Strictky follow the instructions here to check for and remove malware
