Hi,

In addition to Rick's expert advice......

This is generally accompanied by having your IE search engine hijacked with
a .TV extension. More info here: You are needing to rid of this from your
System32 folder:

Added note, most users claim that AVG rectifies the issue quickly. Either
way and in the meantime, run this combo and hope all goes well. If not,
feel free to repost:

Remove Backdoor.agent.ba when detected

1. use Notepad to see the file where regular explorer fails to see it.

2. remember to select view all file types

3. once you see the file in the open menu drag it to desktop

4. rename file to whatever (I renamed the infected file to "a" with no file
extension)

5. reboot in to Safe mode with dos prompt

6. delete file (del c:\...\a)

Run Ad-Aware SE, Spybot and HijackThis:

Note: Update each program, once installed, before running.
