i went to bed last night & everything was fine..
i woke up this morning & when i turned on my pc i had 3 new icons on my desktop..
1 was called online security guide & when i hover the mouse over it, it says www.protectionlist.com..
the other has since disappeared as i scanned with spyware doctor pro & nod32..
the last looks like a program icon & is called porn pass manager..
ive since found out my partners son who is 15 was on it all morning.
i know for a fact hes been on msn as i have 2 user accounts.
1 is in my name & has a password.
the other i use to play games only & under this one it says 3 new messages.
i clicked on it & it came up as his msn address..
everytime i try to go online i notice my browser has been hijacked & the site is called safeiepage.com & there is another window that pops up saying:-
warning w32.Myzor.fk@yf is a virus that affects files with .exe. extensions & attempts to steal passwords & private information..
it also says its 138,293 bytes long & under technical details it says:-
1) creates files in %windir%\ by default this is c:\windows
2) adds values to registry keys: HKEY_LOCAL_MNACHINE\ (NOTICE MACHINE ISNT SPELLED CORRECTLY, BUT THATS HOW IT IS)Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run3
3) scans the hard drive for .exe files & infects any executable files.
searches for passwords/information which it may send to a remote attacker.
it then goes on to say click OK to download officialy approved security software. always keep your patch levels up to date.
can anyone tell me whats happened to my pc?
& more importantly how to fix this?
i just put a brand new heatsink & fan into this & have spent a lot of money on it..
im the only 1 that gets on the pc & will be putting a password on the accounts i use for games..
he has done this before & infected me with malware etc..
i also keep getting popups in the system tray saying
system alert: Trojan-Spy.Win32@mx, Cyberlog-x & another called Trojan SPM/LX.
any help is appreciated.. also what is best for security for your pc as i have lots of programs on disks i dont use such as panda antivirus, panda antivirus & firewall, AVG pro etc..
thanks for any help i recieve. :-(
