I really, really need help here!
This thing is basically taking over my computer!
It also gives me a fake windows warning and when i click on it my IE opens up and pop-ups start coming from everywhere......
please help
thanks
 
Thanks for the help folks!
The sad thing is I already downloaded Prevx1 free trial and ran it. It found a few things but didn't clear up my problem. I've also went through just about every step in Warezmonster guide with no luck.
Whatever the virus is it actually disabled my norton anti virus, to the point where my auto-protect doesn't even work anymore and it asks me to re-install it.
HELP PLEASE!!!!

UPDATE:
Some how my Norton Auto-protect has been turned off and I am unable to turn it back on. It basically tells me I have to re-install Norton. I have tried every possible anti-virus scan with no luck. There is a pop up that comes from my system tray repeatedly saying I have a virus infection and need to update windows security software which when clicked brings me to WinAntiVirus or something like that, I have to shut it down instantly or I get pop ups galore, I've used Prevx1 (which says everything is ok), Anti-Spyware (by micro-trend) with no luck, I've done a full system scan in safe mode and also used spy-bot search and destroy, AD-Aware, RogueRemover 1.16, Windows defender and CWShreddar (and the others you recomended). I also get another pop up that I have to close out of everytime, which says: Attention! System detected a potential hazzard (trojanSPM/LX) on your computer and so on. It ends by saying I need to download official intrustion detection system (IDS software).
Hope this information helps
Thanks again,
MADWAD
 
Got it downloaded and I'm using "windows live messenger" which i'm guessing is the newest one. Should I PM you with the details?
Really appreciate the help.....
Thanks
