i using modem Scientific Atlanta 2100, and yesterday the receive and the send light blinking very fast after start up. When i reboot my PC, the light didn’t blinking very fast. But, the light seems blinking randomly every time i turn on my PC or reboot it. And, after i restart it, the lights blinking normally again.
am i infected by somekind of malware or viruses? i’ve got the experience by some malware that made my receive and the send light blinking very fast, and i got rid of it after a week :
i did avast! full scan and MBAM full scan too, but nothing suspicious. any suggestions or comment?
my system is : WIN XP SP3, 3 giga ram(4 actually), and i’m running internet on chrome browser, and also MBAM free and Avast! free (newest version, i always check the update everyday, avast! automatic update)
it’s me again. I think, i have found the ‘problem’ Well, it’s not a problem after all, it’s just google and it made an update, and download a google toolbar.
from wikipedia
Google Watch has raised concerns about Google Toolbar's possible threats to privacy, such as tracking of browsing patterns, [b]automatic installation of updates without the user's knowledge[/b], and a privacy policy that can be revised without notice.[9] The toolbar does not track personally identifiable surfing activities of the end user unless advanced features such as PageRank are specifically enabled by the user.[10] It does track "anonymous" statistics, which can reveal a lot of information when correlated with other data, although similar criticisms could be made of Google's online search engine.[11]
i have chrome as main browser, and opera and IE as secondary browser. i dont know google tried to download another program into my PC. and now, i hope everything just fine. (i did full scan avast!, boot scan Avast!, MBAM full scan and quick scan, and found nothing suspicious)
