Adam, , welcome.  

Please print this out and follow ALL these directions carefully and completely.

Please go to Internet Explorer then View then select Status Bar and watch the Progress area to see when the Web page is completely displayed so that I do not have to delete your dupicate posts.

If you insist on running file (music) sharing applications like Shareaza then you will continually be infected by all kinds of nasties in the downloaded files.

This is the new prefered method of  virus/worm/trojan spreaders to get into your system and there will be no detection nor removal capability for days/weeks.

The spreaders count on this time to do their nastieness and create new nasties that are not detected.
http://www.pcworld.com/news/article/0,aid,119016,00.asp

Go to Add/Remove Programs and uninstall it.

Boot into Safe Mode by tapping F8 key repeatedly at bootup.
More detailed instructions here:
http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT/tsgeninfo.nsf/docid/2001052409420406

Go to Add/Remove Programs and un-install  Messenger Plus! and SpywareBegone if present.

You installed Messenger Plus! that is infected with lop.com

Read about SpywareBegone:

Reboot and Install the prevention protection below and help your friends from being infected on the Internet.

"An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure."

Remove the infections and install the prevention protection on ALL User Account IDs.

Empty the Recycle Bin frequently.

Run CleanUp! as the Temp folders should be cleaned out periodically as installation programs and hijack programs leave a lot of junk there.
http://cleanup.stevengould.org/
Then reboot to let it clean out what it found.

By the way, in order to improve Internet Explorer (IE) performance the Temporary(TIF)should be cleaned out periodically.
Also, it is a good idea to limit the size of the TIF to 100MB for performance sake.
In IE go to Tools then Internet Options then Settings and move the slider down to 100MB.

Download and install WinPatrol.
http://www.winpatrol.com

Browser settings for increased security:
http://bshagnasty.home.att.net/browsersettings.htm

Install IE-SPYAD then run the install.bat in the ie-spyad folder and SpywareBlaster then keep them up to date as today's Internet is full of nasty infections.

Hi YoKenny,

thank you for your reply, I will action it as soon as I get to chat to my friend again. I should point out that it is HIS PC and not mine! I have told him quite a few times that he shouldn't install these programs that are loaded with allsorts of ad and spyware but does he listen!

Anyway, I will post back once I have had a chance to get on his PC.

Many thanks for now

Adam  

Hi YoKenny,

Thanks for the help you have given me which has indirectly given my computer 'another lease of life'.  I appreciate it immensely.  Also, to Adam, thanks very much mate.

OK, cheers guys,

Jordan
