Well, i downloaded winrar from here (DO NOT USE AS A RESORCE AS THIS IS INFECTED WITH INTERVALHEHEHE)
[/b]WARNING- DO NOT USE[/b]-http://www.downloadcom.net.cn/WinRAR.exe-[/b]WARNING- DO NOT USE[/b]

I installed that because izark had problems extracting rar files, then 5min later, winrar is doing its job, message pops up:
Comanglia Comanglia Comanglia Comanglia!!!

And www.google.com takes me to a page with japanese writing.
I downloaded Spyware Detector and i am searching for the spyware right now.

HOW TO DISABLE:
-1: Open Task Manager and go to the Processes tab (CTRL+ALT+DEL)
-2: Look for explore.exe (NOT explorer.exe)
-3: Highlight explore.exe and click End Process
-4: Search for explore.exe and delete the file that you find with that name (LOOK AT ATTACHED PIC, mine is WINXP, but at default should be WINDOWS). (NOT EXPLORER.EXE, OR YOU WILL LOOSE THE FUNCTIONALITY OF YOUR OS)
-5: Go to C:/WINDOWS/system32/drivers/etc/host and delete all in that text file.
-6: It should be gone.

this outbreak lasted 15min for me this is just a warning.

thx

i recommend 7zip, it's free, and supports all compression formats i've ever known (and the exe is virus free ).

Hmm wierd. perhaps you need to be signed in?

I found the contact link here:

https://www.google.com/adsense/support/bin/topic.py?topic=8424

I'd file the report myself, but I'm not willing to go around clicking on stuff to confirm I'm seeing the link you were seeing

Yea, "buying" Sysmantec Antivirus Corperate is probably a good idea.

I have a few small free applications that I use that helps protect my computer. If you are interested I can post a list with links to the download?

Actually I'll just edit it in here now in case I forget about it.

Disk Defrag http://www.auslogics.com/disk-defragDefragmentation Tool

Alternatively:
Diskeeper http://www.diskeeper.com/$29.95 (I have version "2008 Home", but the 2009 version has now been released)"

I'd recommend Kaspersky Internet Security 2009 over anything Norton any day, in my experiences with Norton/Symantec is that it's very bulky, i.e, heavy on system resources.

And how are you going to find it in a store if you can't even spell it properly?

ok I had the virus but some sites are still coming up as the fake microsoft site. I know the virus is gone. So how do I change everything back.

P.S. I've also reinstalled both firefox and Internet exporer.

I was one of the first to get Comanglia!!!
