    go to www.symantec.com. You have a trojan virus called Trojan.Sinkin. You have to press control alt delete and say end task for av.exe. Then go into start > run > and open regedit. then go to hkey_local_machine > software> microsoft > windows> current version > and click run. Then delte the value it says to delete at the symantec site. I forgot exactly which one it was. One of my friends has the virus.

    Joel, have you ever considered changing your internet habits? You seem to make a post about getting a virus or some form of spyware every couple weeks. Viruses don't just appear on your computer, you must be doing something unsafe on a regular basis.

    Well the AIM problem has cleared up, and I have spyware killers and Virus don't bother me that much because I have my firewall up, so I don't really know how all of this crap keeps happening, I perform Windows Updates all the time. The things I do on the internet on a daily basis is come here as well as 3 other forums, on the weekends when I have spare time with nothing to do I download hentai movies on Imesh, play Diablo 2, Half Life, or Serious Sam. I only use my p2p client for downloading video clips and music, I don't think downloadig things on Imesh can get you that much virus trouble conciderng I don't download anything ending in .exe or .zip.

    Just resist the urge to click everything in sight, Joel.
