I seem to have picked up malware that is very difficult to remove by conventional means. I thought is was vundo and maybe it is, but the tools for its removal did not seem to work as described. I have followed the "before you post instructions and have logs for the entire process."
As a practice I run zone alarm, avg antivirus, and adaware.
You help is greatly appreciated.
