Hey, my computer restarted itself the other night and on start up the background had been changed, saying "Warning: Spyware hreat detected" (etc) and I was getting constant pop ups telling me i had spyware etc on my computer and that i should "Download/scan now!". It has disabled the Task Manager. Its also immitating Windows Security Center, what ever it is. I did a scan using HIjackThis and attempted to delete some of the files manually in Safe Mode but to no avail :( Please help. :)

I think there may be more than the log shows from looking through manually, is it possible that it missed some?
