Kewl. Did you ever identify the virus?
Naw, just glad it's gone. The blogs said it was probably in some file I downloaded, but I feel it came from a website. One of the first signs I got that things weren't right was pop up adds for sites I didn't want to go to. I would Google something and when I clicked on a link I would go to some no name search engine instead of the link. After I got rid of the malware sending me to the wrong place, I was left with a bunch of error reports when clicking on a drive.
If I have a say, I would name it the Obama first day virus. But I'm sure I will later find out it was Bush's fault.
