maybe its a problem with smiley central :S that thing has a lot of bad stuff in it :S 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.

oh yeah and on the same thread look at CookieRevised's obvious virus signs click here

hope this helps u out :S
