1) use GAIM instead of MSN
2) try spyremover from www.itcompany.com
3) get a REAL antivirus: http://www.mwti.net/ - escan2003 virus control edition
-- // edit
try safemode to remove crap

that sounds like the new msn virus, go into msconfig and see if anything weird is in there.. then check in your processes and end it, it must be in there because if it's sending it can't do it invisible ;)

lol, well actually it pretty much is.
teh fucka that made this one has made all the files hidden, n disabled all folder optionz.. so i cant see 'em n i cant locate 'em.
erm... i think its sorted now.. if not, then the program operating all of this has been ended, until i next restart.. in that time gotta find it n eliminate it.
my scanners aint showin nothin' :/
will post back on this.
thanks for the help guys!

ok, the easiest way to end this thing, is to end the prog before its started operating.
i had to reboot, then bang in me user n pass to login, then ctrl alt del it before it starts messin stuff up.
took me a good 6/7 times to get it tho.. as soon as ur wallpaper appears u got about 0.75 of a second to hit 'end programs' and end it.
then um.. then i could use my av's etc, could view av sites n all that.. only proggy i could find to remove it was KasperspyAV 5.0.227
took about an hour but finished scanning in the end.. detected about 20 infected files, each are the ones it sends over msn.
still, i havent formatted to get out of this, but my system restore is still down.

System Restore has been turned off by group policy. To turn on System Restore, contact your domain administrator

ever since i was infected i got this message, does that actually mean anything? or do i really have to format? cos this is the only remaining error to my knowledge.
thanks.

Hi, right click on "My Computer" on the desktop and go to properties, click on the system restore tab then untick "Turn off system restore on all drives" if it's ticked then click accept and ok. That should enable it again.

lol sound like you got hit really bad there, try the above post and if you have no joy it may be better to format spending an hour instead of wasting ya time trying to correct it manualy. at least that way you know that the problem is definatly gone and all files are bk to normal.
