Spyware/Malware

[Canmorite]

Something nasty got into my computer. Did two ad-aware scans but that didn't help.

When I open up IE or Firefox, I cannot open gmail.com, or search on any search engine.

I'll open up gmail in IE, and it will half load, then direct me to a blank page and Norton will say it blocked and intrusion attempt. When I do the same in Firefox, it just loads forever and nothing happens. :dunno:

Anyone ever dealt with this?

Thanks.

I had the same problem not too long ago.

I downloaded 2 other programs and ran them and they couldn't delete the problem. You should run Malwarebytes Anti-Malware...
keep note of what it detects and whether it deletes it or not. Based on that, download the appropriate specific virus remover...(it if its a blabla.trojan virus find a remover) from a trusted source.

Thanks! That removed a whole bunch of crap, but the problem still persists.
