I don’t know if this is all part of the virus - but I started getting a message from the toolbar with a green wheelchair symbol telling me my computer was infected - i thought that was weird because none of my anti virus programs had said anything. It said to click here for suggested sypware and malwear removoal tools. All the suggested ones I had not heard of and they all looked suspicioulsy familiar + plus they all cost $40. I tried running windows protector and adaware but they found nothing - i then used a regcleaner which didn’t seem to fix the problem either. I’am also getting messages saying that sites are trying to access other sites and when i launch explorer i get this page:

If someone could point me in a direction that can fix this i’d be very grateful - as at the moment whatever it is is dodging every detection / removal program ive used. I’m running Avast! Virus Cleaner right now… so… here’s hoping…
Install siteadvisor as an add-on for IE or FF, or download the DrWeb hyperlink pre-scanner add-on for your browser to stay away from rogue programs and spammers.
After your comp is cleansed, install one good resident anti-virus program (Avast), scan occasionally with a good online scanner like Bitdefender, have one good software firewall like ZA for instance, install the three anti-spyware programs recommended: Spybot S&D, SpywareBlaster and Ad-Aware (all free), scan occasionally with spyaudit online scanner for ad-spyware and tracking cookies. Surf safe, stay malware free, is the wish of,
