Hello, I'm new and i have a desprate problem.

I was playing a game, and norton antivirus poped up and said something like a virus that couldn't be removed.

I noticed my desktop screen was all blue, and in grey text it said it in like this format"
Security warning
A fatal error in IE has occured at 0028:C001E36 in VXD VMM<01> +
00010E36. Error was caused by Trojan-Spy.HTML.Smitfraud.c

* System can not function in normal mode.
Please check you security settings. (yes it said you not your)
* Scan your PC with any available antivirus / spyware remover program to fix this problem.

This text was repeated, and that and to change it (i tried) i went to properties and noticed that i couldn't change backround. Just "screensavors", and "Advanced".
I have my specs in my profile, but if you need more, tell me, and tell me how to get it for you. There seems to be no serious effects besides the backround...i can still load programs.

P.S. I've checked other topics on this, but they had a DELL and had different effects. Please help me out! :tazz:

Please go to the malware forum and follow the instructions at the top....Especially the CLICK HERE .

That will give you several steps that will help you clean up 70 percent of all problems by yourself. If at the end of the process you are still having difficulty--and you may not be-- then post a hijackthis log in THAT forum.

If you are still having problems after getting a clean bill of health from the malware expert, please return to this thread.
