"Your computer is infected" in System Tray

Unknown
edited December 2005 in Spyware & Virus Removal
Need assistance with suspected Spyware virus.

Have a new HP computer running MSXP SP2. We have an icon in our system tray (red circle with white X) that periodically opens a blloon indicating our computer is infected with Spyware, please click to download spyware infection software. Also our IE Homepage has been changed to "about:blank".

I performed a google search and found reference to a virus "IoCtrl Trojan" that may be the source of my problem.

I have successfully run AdAware SE 1.06 as well as Spybot Search and Destory 1.4 and still have the problem. I do have multiple user accounts set-up on the PC. The spyware software I have run has only been run from the Administrator account (don't know if that makes any difference).

I am attaching the results from a HiJackThis scan run earlier today. I haven't gone through that log yet but wanted to see if anyone else was aware of a problem similar to mine.

Suggestions are welcome. Thanks.

Joe Manning

    Issue looks resolved. Three more icons showed up in System Tray this AM. Ran Adaware and Spybot Search and Destory. Spybot S&D seemed to find them and resolved them. Don't know why it didn't find them yesterday, though.

    Spybot may have automatically updated its definitions since then.

    For future reference, hitting F8 at boot and starting up in Safe Mode may increase your chances of fixing the problem.

    Glad you got it beat, though. :)
