Well, this problem started about 2 weeks ago. I was browsing online at my usual locations (yahoo, gmail, cnn, facebook) when my Nod32 Smart Securuity stopped an attack. I was currently on facebook at the time. So, I left Internet Explorer and I ran my virus scan; nothing found. I began to get popups stating my PC needed a virus scan. I consulted with a friend of mine who said it was probably a trojan. I ran Adaware found 20+ infections and removed them, just to re-run it immediately again, to find 20+ again. I ran another program that I cannot remember the name of, that checked my PC against a built database of trojan viruses, it found 10+ so I continued to run it until it found 0 infections. The popups continued and anytime I open IE, it caused PC lag and the scanners would pick everuthing back up again.
After dealing with this for a few weeks, I gave up and reformatted my PC; clean wipe and reinstall of Windows XP, this was a week ago. Now, I am getting the same problems again.
My question is, is there something I can run that will detect what I have? Virus scan isn’t picking anything up. I see hundrends of Trojan removal programs, but I dont know what I have so the 15-20 I’ve tried find nothing.
Help!
