Idon't think it is a virus I htink you got a windows or spyware prob

have you run any spyware programs like spybot or adware?

no

this message will not prompt out if i not connect to internet. no i not run any spyware

you can download them for free google them then scan your system

try that to see if that helps

hi..

u NEED service pack 2 .. or download SASSER & Blaster Patch from Microsoft that will fix the problem..

also u need a firewall & u need 2 not use norton

but for other things, as suggested above, u NEED a spyware program (or several)

i use:

Spyware Blaster (using this GREATLY improves your security against spyware)

Adaware

Spybot Search & Destroy

Could it be W32/Sasser Worm??

try downloading a removal tool then try installing all patches/updates for xp.

Hope that helps.

where is the message

Update to SP2 (or at the very least apply blaster patches). That RPC DCOM exploit was fixed back in june (almost 6 months ago), so you should be updating more often. As for the SAV/NAV, if you really like it keep it, but I certainly don't recommend it. Also a good firewall wouldn't hurt.

Exactly! I also answered in your other post (I'm guessing it wasn't intentionnal).

Update to SP2 already (and keep up to date on patches)

Use a half decent AV (I don't like norton stuff either)

Use at least a basic firewall (even the basic WinXP firewall is better than none...)

Spyware scanners can't hurt either

And if you still use IE, consider Firefox...

(most likely, you'll want to download the sun java vm too as the crappy m$ one was removed after SP1)

Then you shouldn't be having issues of that kind anymore

generally, when you uninstall nav and install some other av, you'll find a lot of viruses o your system...

does this help?
