Just did a scan with trend micro and it told me that i was infected with ADW_MINIBUG.A. I googled it but couldn't find anything usefull (at least for my computer skill level) to remove it. Is there any relatively easy way to remove it? I read something about disabling system restore and safe mode. Thanks in advance!

send in a HJT log, and if youve read about disabled systme restore try it, sometimes you can disable system restore,reboot and enable it aggain this will kill any viruses on previous restore points.

I disabled:

O8 - Extra context menu item: &AOL Toolbar search - res://C:\Program Files\AOL Toolbar\toolbar.dll/SEARCH.HTML

O23 - Service: InCD Helper (InCDsrv) - Nero AG - C:\Program Files\Ahead\InCD\InCDsrv.exe

O23 - Service: iPodService - Apple Computer, Inc. - C:\Program Files\iPod\bin\iPodService.exe

The AOL and Ipod things because I'm pretty sure that my computer doesn't need them and the InCD because i read that it causes problems during shutting down and restarting the computer.

My computer is still acting wierd though, any suggestions on what to do?!
