1. DONT USE IE. www.mozilla.com, download firefox
2. Download SpyBot AND Ad-aware, update definitions, scan, delete. 3. Download virus protection like AVAST and do a complete scan with latest definitions 4. Go to add/remove programs and make sure you dont see any programs you didnt install, if you do UINSTALL THEM I would go to my program files and delete the directorys to, but only if your sure not to delete the wrong stuff, maybe get a registry cleaner to (?) That is a worm, not spyware. Its a virus. You might have to do the virus scan in safe mode also, good luck! http://securityresponse.symantec.com...naka.a@mm.html

Going Broke Overclocking

Don't use your e-mail untill you remove it.
http://securityresponse.symantec.com...naka.a@mm.html As far as to your risk level... could not say. Best to change any passwords on any banking accounts after you remove it to be sure.

Its bogus. I just went to the webpage in your screen shot and it gave me the exact same page, even said the exact same ip had control of my machine and I know there is not any thing on my machine.

You guys need to go get some virus protection and always have full-time virus protection on. Then it detects them before they can do harm... usually..

yeah, usually if you get a popup with Microsoft Internet Explorer in the title bar and you are using Firefox it is probably just spam.
