Heads up All. Spyaxe/sinnaka.a

If this is a breach of the rules I do appologize but I felt the need to give everyone a heads up.

A Helpful Alert for all.

Hey all. I figured I'd warn all of you about this so you can be ready for it.

I just finished recovering from it myself.

December 10, 2005 at 4am (-5 GMT) I got hit with it. The worm took over my Internet Explorer.

Just so all of you are aware, no ONE spy ware remover as well as no ONE virus checker will catch all of it.

A combination of HijackThis, smitrem.exe, Panda Activescan and Ewido security suite was what helped me.

It wouldn't allow me to go to my home page, kept redirecting me to a site telling me I was infected with it and I MUST install spyaxe to get rid of.

So you all know this was a "phising" site. Problem was it acted like an actual Microsoft alert. Looks and acts as if it was.

Stop by Freedom list forum about it if you feel you get the same problems.

It isn't breaking the rules, and thanks for the heads up

After that I'm starting to use Nestscape, which I have locked in Firefox mode, more often. Even though it does switch back to I.E. mode when I'm stoping past Microsoft sites.

However I am seriously thinking of a 3rd browser to use that my Spy-bot program won't be constantly tripping on.
