NOD32 started reporting strange things about various files even if computer is idle and all about win32/Prcview application, 7 days ago. Of course, I don't have this application and NOD32 says 0 files infected. I've been searching about this issue and found something about Smitfraud. That lead me to this forum, so I have tried to download SmithfraudFix, but failed to save and nod32 pops up immediately about same thing (prcview threat) but with firefox.exe file. I have tried with your mirrors, then official site, filefront, failed. Tried another antimalware, failed. Then after 5 mins I was getting "file does not exist" screen in Firefox 2.0. Also, the window asking where to save file looks different, more like in iexplorer. And all this does not happen with other files from the internet! Next thing I have tried was to disable nod32 but then I was getting 0 byte files. Otherwise my computer runs fine. So I can't even post you a log file, pls help. Thanks,
