Hello,

i logged back on to it on my account and went onto the internet and it went to www.iehomepages.com and said my computer was infected with a virus. it came up on the screen saying W32.Myzor.fk@yf virus that infects files with exe. extensions, it also said that it steals passwords and can go into personal files! i have done all my virus checkers and that! Ad-aware se personal said i had 50 and deleted them all but it is still there!!

Well, you can always do a reformat, but one other anti-virus is Anti-Vir. I personally use it, and can say that it does an exceptional job, better than any retail anti-virus.
 
Download HJTsetup.exe from this link http://www.thespykiller.co.uk/files/HJTsetup.exe to your desktop.
Doubleclick on the HJTsetup.exe icon on your desktop.
By default it will install to C:\Program Files\Hijack This.Please install it there.
Continue to click "next" in the setup dialogue boxes until you get to the "Select Addition Tasks" dialogue.
Put a check by "Create a desktop icon" then click "Next" again.
Continue to follow the rest of the prompts from there.
At the final dialogue box click "Finish" and it will launch Hijack This.
Click on the "Do a system scan and save a logfile" button. It will scan and the log should open in notepad.
Click on "Edit > Select All" then click on "Edit > Copy" to copy the entire contents of the log and post it in this thread.

Download SmitfraudFix (by S!Ri) http://siri.urz.free.fr/Fix/SmitfraudFix.zip to your Desktop.
Extract all the files to your Destop. A folder named SmitfraudFix will be created on your Desktop.


Open the SmitfraudFix folder and double-click smitfraudfix.cmd
Select option #1 - Search by typing 1 and press Enter
This program will scan large amounts of files on your computer for known patterns so please be patient while it works. When it is done, the results of the scan will be displayed and it will create a log named rapport.txt in the root of your drive, eg: Local Disk C: or partition where your operating system is installed. Post this log also.
 
All done!

Hiya,
just to say that it is all done! i installed AVG and it picked it up straight away and deleted it! everything is back to normal now!
Many thanks for telling me what to do!

Hi, this has happened to me as well. I have also checked my computer for viruses using avast. I have read the page that it brings up and I have a feeling that it is just an advertisment. Mainly because it has various links to quite a few virus protection companies. However i have searched my computer for both 'iehomepages' and the virus it says i have (myzor or something) and both of them came up zilch, except for the cookie for the homepage. I do not think that there is a real virus but that it is just a gimick. Unfortunately, I am still unable to get rid of the pop-up.
