Hi everyone,

Last night my laptop seemed to come down with this all of a sudden. I can see the AV symbol rning in the system tray (Antivira Av)

Basically it's a fake malware program that's telling me my computer is infected with viruses and gives me a fake screen telling me I need to purchase the full program in order for me to remove the viruses.. :mad:

It's set firefox and IE to use a proxy on start up, and is shutting down every program I try to open! AAARGH!
Any experience with this one? I've tried to remove with comodo with no joy
