i also found out on the processes tab of the task manager that some system processes had been replicated and running as local sysytem processes—a process like SERVICES had been replicated…WMM.. something had also been replicated with 2 other ones. Trying to end this processes is futile as they cant. Also at loading up! the machine loads with an open web page with the URL ADDRESS…. c\documents & settings\administrator\my documents\my pictues\BRONTOK.A.HTML i.e the file BRONTOK.A.HTML is in the my pictures folders and truly by doing a manual check its there…what brought it there is a wonder but the biggest WONDER is that it does not DELETE…if deleted completely it behaves as if gone but on restart it loads again and at other times it loads by itself while working…. a manual search reveals that the file still exists in the my pictures folder even after an immediate delete…deleting the mother folder doesnt help much coz it behaves the same way..deleting the my pictures folder doesnt help coz it automatically returns..renaming it doesnt help either…..HEEEELLLLP am goooing BANANAS!!!!! am now left to work with them… this is affecting my flash disk as at times the machine refuses to completely detect it. IS THIS A VIRUS!!!! A BUG!!! PLAIN CRAZINESS or what could it be…it is really costing us….if it is a virus why is it not being detected…… I USED TO THINK NORTON ANTIVIRUS IS THE MOST ADVANCED AND THE BEST now am having doubts. We have no local network and our internet is dial up which we rarely use. Please help before it spreads to all other machines coz from my last check it had infected one more machine….
