It started off the other day when I suddenly got a virus warning from my Norton AV (Fully up to date) telling me I had picked up a 'bloodhound' virus. it couldnt repair or quarantine it, my in ternet explorer homepage vanished and kept taking me to some PSGuard site no matter what page I tried to open. It aslo placed a few extra shortcuts on my desktop for gambling, dating and spyware etc.
I ran Adaware SE which found a load of stuff then deleted them (but it finds them every time I scan).
I then ran Spybot S+D which found a load of other stuff and deleted most of them except something called Smitfraud(?). I then looked on the net and found something to remove that (but it didn't work) as its still there.
Now I'm still getting constant warnings from Norton telling me I have a virus but now its called w32.desktophijack and again it can neither quarantine or delete it.
I seem to have regained my homepage though and the PSGuard page only now appears occasionally.
My confusion is have I partly removed my problem?
Has this virus changed names or is it a new virus?
Have I more than one problem?
If so are they related?
What do I do next?
I'd really appreciate any help you guys could give
Thanks
