    WINDOWS warning message
    « on: September 17, 2008, 02:49:33 PM »
    I have seen this a couple time on other computers but I don't know how they fixed it.   
    Something is on my computer that has a big warning about spyware detected and it looks like an ad, BUT It has turned into my background on my computer and it has also changed 'display properties' I can't get by screen saver and/or background.  What did these a-holes do to my computer?

      Well, we can help you with the infection, but we can't exactly help you find the person that put it on there.

      Just follow the instructions in my first post.
