It is an oplympic torch thing that starts burning and you can't stop it and it ruins your computer. Gets everyone in your address book. So delete it when you get it.
Don't open the E mail called "Invitation" Delete it immediately

In competent independent comparative tests, Grisoft's AVG Anti-Virus has been shown to have a less than stellar virus/malware detection rate. This has been determined in test after test after test.

Why are people still using this waste of disk space when better options are available and just as free?

How can someone hack into your personal e-mail and read them? Do they have to have your pass word? Or are there other ways they do that?

I am so sick of my computer LoL* But who isn't?

I have win xp home. No security protection because everytime I try and put something on my computer to *protect* it I get the dreaded blue screen!

I have now downloaded ccleaner which seems to be the only thing that will work, but it doens't get rid of viruses etc.

I have tons of trojans, adware, spyware. As of yesterday I now have this blinking icon in my system tray which goes from a question mark to a red X and tells me system alert every 5 second. If I click on it, it takes me to spylocked.com. I can NOT get rid of it...and I really think that it is most of my problem.

AND NOW when I try and open my IE up. It doesn't allow me to go to a website. It just sits there and says searching....but if I click on the searbar it allows me to go.

Can ANYONE help me or give me some advice.

A friend of mine told me that he was having connection problems when his brother started wearing a tether or GPS tracking device, for a "crime" he commited.

Then he told me that is the ISP that has the problems, but we havent talk for days and I don't know how long is he going to be with that problem.

Is that possible, or just pure coincidence?

I really hope is coincidence and is just the ISP.

When I right click the icon, The site coming up is called Spylocked. The icon is a blue Question mark, that flashes a stop signal. It keeps popping up and saying "System Alert" - tells me that there is a number of spyware on my computer. I have downloaded Windows Live Care 1 and the Grisoft, and Spybot programs to get rid of the spyware. My Windows Live care is telling that me the spylocked program is a problem, so I have removed it. Why does this warning keep coming up? How do I remove it from my toolbar and computer?? Thx
