OK i looked on the virus lists and I cannot seem to find it and I also looked on the recent virus lists ,nothing there either..the website is simply a window to a search site.. unless spelling is incorrect??
Your sister should do a Scan and post results..also update her virus definitions before the scan.:)

I'm not to clear ,I'm not sure if you made a typo here because that doesnt make sense...so" you have done a system scan but it will take too long?"
in other words you havent done a full system scan?..

I don't think it is a virus. It is most likely some sort of adware/malware.

Download HijackThis. Run it and select 'Do a system scan and save a log file'. Once it has finished, upload that log here.

oh um there were a bunch from gamespy arcade and others trogan.pspbrick (psp thing, harmless to computers) and yeah..... i dont hear the sound anymore.... but what could have caused this?

RE: New Virus or something? by kittymew on 12-16-2005 at 02:31 AM
