    Help - Strange Virus

    I keep getting this alert of this virus. The alert pops up whenever I leave my computer alone for 10 minutes or so.

    I have run Panda Anti Virus, AVG, Norton and Avast but none of them have found/removed it. AVG cant find it even though the AVG sheilds keeps blocking it.

    And I have no such directory.

    Looks like it's in your system restore folder. Disable system restore, and do a rescan making sure you scan all folder, including hidden system ones. Should find it that way.

    Even if he disables restore he will have to delete the restore point files? Or am I wrong?

    I disabled system restore, scanned with AVG, and it froze, I then scanned with Panda, it froze too, same goes for Avast and Norton, they all froze. I have no clue what the hell it is, or how to remove it. I guess I will have to format.
