maybe its a problem with smiley central
that thing has a lot of bad stuff in it either way i dont trust it.try the antivirus i pointed out above. sometimes norton doesn't detect some things that other anti virus-scanners do and vice versa.
Edit: here is a link i got from here
maybe you have a bropia worm.. here are some tools to remove it.
