HELP ME! My name says it all! :P

There is this really annoying thing poping up all the time, and down where the running programs icons are, there is a big circle with a big X in the middle. And a pop up keeps 'poping up' saying:

Your computer is infected!

Windows has detected spyware infection!

It is recommended to use special antispyware tools to prevent
data loss. Windows will now download and install the most
up-to-date antispyware for you.

Click here to protect your computer from spyware!


This pops up about every half a minute to 1 minute.
This all started when I went to a website, just browsing and i saw this download bos pop up for about 0.5 secs. And then the above windows pop-up came up and has been reappearing since, I have clicked te icon and double clicked it, but nothing happens. And i am afraid that it may cause further problems, I beleive the program that has been installed is called: ncj.exe But i am not sure if that is a Windows program!

I also has alot of other trojen horses and virus on my computer, I have read a few threads from this forum and it seems that TomCoyote Forums have helped them and completely got rid of the problem. I have no idea what HiJackThis is. But if you ask me to run it, and post logs of it, i will do so.

Please help me!

Hello red_circle_white_X_comp_infected, and welcome to TomCoyote forums. I'm dak, and I'll be helping you to fix your computer.

I'm sorry for the delay in replying to your log. If you still require assistance, please could you do the following:

Firstly, please download the latest version of HijackThis from here (scroll down and click the button with a flashing green light next to it).

Then please right-click on the zipped file, and select "extract all"/"extract here" to unzip it.

run HijackThis and select 'scan and make a log file'.

Hi Dak, This is red_circle_white_X_comp_infected, I couldnt log onto the account for some reason, oh well.

I will be posting and replying on this account from now on k, I do not have access to the infected computer at the moment because it is in use, but I will post the HijackThis log once I am able to use the infected computer.

The Your computer is infected sign does not pop up anymore. But I have scanned the computer not too long ago and I have many viruses (around 15) including Trojan horses and just normal viruses, I would like to get rid of those as soon as i can

I do not want my computer to get taken over or have anything deleted because I have a few website pages and website sources and heaps of music, videos, games and just general stuff. So I will get back to you asap with the HijackThis log ok

Hi I'm really busy with my uni dissertation at the moment, but if you post a new HijackThis log up as a reply to this thread I'll ask one of my colleagues to take over and help you fix your computer.

I'll see what I can do

Ok I still havn't been able to get a HijackThis log yet, But I will get back to you with one as soon as I can

OK
