I'm almost certain I have a virus. I've been noticing symptoms like programs not loading correctly or at all, constant browser hijacking, taskmanager being disabled, and being a gamer my ping is exceedingly high (6000+ms). I use Norton Internet Security 2007 and have run sevral full-system scans but come up with nothing. I can't do a system restore because I have no restore points saved - likely the doing of the virus. I'm not hugely familiar with viruses and short of wiping my hard drive clean I'm not sure how to correct it. If anyone could diagnose my problem or tell me how to correct it I would greatly appreciate it.

I currently have an anonymous blog troll on my LiveJournal account who keeps leaving anonymous comments. Thankfully, the filter catches/automatically screens these comments first and LJ's IP logger is on.

I just noticed that all these comments are from the same IP address.

I tried using IP Geolocation tools that are available on the internet, trying my own IP address first to gauge its accuracy, but everything seems to be completely off.

Does anyone know of anything more accurate? And what do you think I can or should do with the annoying anonymous troll?

See where I'm going? Okay so here's the deal. I'm trying to hack into my own system using linux so I can figure out the weaknesses & resolve them. Only problem is I've never hacked before. I'm reading a book that tells me the basics, so using nmap I scanned my router & found port 443 open. The book tells me once I find an open port, I should telnet into it. I've used telnet, so that's no big deal. I open telnet, type "open 192.168.0.101 443" and here's what I get:

Trying 192.168.0.101...
Connected to 192.168.0.101.
Escape character is '^]'.

But then nothing. No login, no response from the computer at all. I'm at a loss, so I start guessing. I type "ls" and get nothing. I type "list" and get nothing. Then I type "ftp" and it responds

Connection closed by foreign host.

Then it boots me back to the root terminal. My question is this.. once I have the initial connection, WTF do I do to penetrate/exploit?

Whenever I go into My Documents, an alert comes up telling me to download free anti-trojan software, but I think that would be a trap, tricking me into downloading more viruses. What can I do to get rid of this?

A couple of days ago my computer got infected by a virus. I did a bunch of cleaning things, etc, but now, a few problems remain that I can't get rid of!
1) Sometimes, as I open and close the internet browser, everything (all icons and the blue taskbar at the bottom) disappears and then reappear a few seconds later. This is getting extrmely annoying.

2) My system restore cannot go back to previous months anymore.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

We have spybot and I have done a scan and remove search, but this message keeps appearing and it's getting really annoying;

Your internet browser was infected by Trojan.win32obfuscated.gx. You need to clean your system immediately, in case it can be crashed soon.

Click on to download the high-tec antispyware protection software (Recommended).

This isn't even proper English. Is it for real or is it a hoax just wanting me buy their software, if so how do I get rid of it.

Or is it a virus itself, how can I get rid of it. Please help.
Thank you in advance.

How do I know if all the files for Norton are gone? I went to add/remove programs and uninstalled Norton 360.Do Sysmantac (spelling) files need to be deleted also? I have dialup and whenever I go to download anything that is big, I usually get booted off before it's finished :( That is another issue) Please advise on both issues. Thanks a whole bunch! :)
