BenLeacock™ Posted September 5, 2008 Report Share Posted September 5, 2008 Right guys, need help fast, keep getting loads of messages, I think it was from a download from a torrent before for a song. But its going crazy. One thats just come up now- Excessive SMTP email traffic has been detected. Probable spambot infection. Do you wish to scan for spambot type malware now.and on my desktop everytime i refresh, i get a ''quality porn'' icon, ive deleted it just reapears. Ive got symantec antivirus corpoate edition, scanned on that but it doesnt find anything, it had a load in the quarantine before but that all deleted easy. Just after some tips/tricks to remove all this shite :@ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sonny Clarke Posted September 5, 2008 Report Share Posted September 5, 2008 (edited) Ages ago i had a similar problem where the icon keeps reappearing on the desktop kind of virus.I got recomemned a few ones, one of them which was spybot, and there was another one i can't put my finger on.It wasn't a professional virus remover, just one some genius made i presume but it did the trick, any ideas on the name?

Adam L Posted September 5, 2008 Report Share Posted September 5, 2008 If you haven't already, download Hijack This. Unzip it, go to the location where its saved, open it. Click 'Do a scan and save logfile'.Then paste the logfile Here. Make sure before you submit it that the 'Show user ratings' box is checked.Should tell you what the bad things are on your computer.Check all the bad ones on the HijackThis program, then click fix checked.Thats all i can say, if it doesn't work then i'm puzzled.Adam.
