Infected by worm.win32.NetSky. Seemed worse yesterday - couldn't open Task Manager - but it is opening today, maybe because I followed your instructions under "Are you infected." I've read this isn't a very dangerous infection, but I'm still worried about the security of my data. There's a big sign on my desktop saying "Your System Is Infected. System has been stopped due to serious malfunction. Spyware activity has been detected. It is recommended to use spyware removal tool to prevent data loss. Do not use the computer before all spyware removed." Here is the MBAM log Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware 1.44 Database version: 3510 Windows 5.1.2600 Service Pack 3 Internet Explorer 8.0.6001.18702 1/27/2010 9:18:21 PM mbam-log-2010-01-27 (21-18-21).txt Scan type: Quick Scan Objects scanned: 125660 Time elapsed: 6 minute(s), 33 second(s) Memory Processes Infected: 1 Memory Modules Infected: 0 Registry Keys Infected: 10 Registry Values Infected: 1 Registry Data Items Infected: 10 Folders Infected: 0 Files Infected: 5 Memory Processes Infected: C:\WINDOWS\system32\smss32.exe (Trojan.FakeAlert) -> Unloaded process successfully.
