I need computer help :(
I think I have a virus *sigh*
WHen I go to google, it just says "Welcome to nginx!" well, I did a Yahoo search (and holy hell, let me tell you .... it took me a second to think of how I was going to search for things since Google wasn't working....lol) and from what people said on the interwebz, I have a virus. Well; I've ran Norton - it came up with not a damn thing (shocker...) I ran AdAware, Spybot .... it came up with files, I tried to delete them - it says I don't have administrative power to delete those files. This is on an HP desktop ... does anyone have any ideas on what I can do? This is pissing me off :(

I have yet to run into a virus that can survive a good blast from combofix. EDIT: and I work at an IT consulting firm, so I get to deal with these at least on a weekly basis.

I seriously owe you like a box of ammo or something, because IT WORKS. Ahhhh it got everything that no other anti-virus has been able to get. I don't even know what it was, because it just popped up with a notepad full of computer talk, and I said "Well - I hope that worked" and it did :) AHHH YEAHHH!!! THank you!!

It's back :( It's doing that stupid "Welcome to Nginx!" on Google and Youtube again.
I ran all the virus programs again, and the one you posted the link to - and it says there's nothing there, so I don't know. I hate computers.

127.0.0.1 localhost that's it :/ it's a 1k file, so it's not big at all ... I have no idea why that's all that's there. I hate computers, I really do.

HiJackThis has caused me some problems before. I've accidentally a few client computers with that, that's why I switched to ComboFix.
You may have a rootkit. Try booting into safemode and running TDSSKiller - link here See if that picks anything up.

do you have all of those installed at the same time? That alone can cause issues, and can make it harder for other programs to figure out what viruses you have.

Yeah Norton sucks. I liked the enterprise version of Kaspersky until this latest one. It's a POS. Version 6 was rock solid though. Norton is exactly as PK described though, a bloated pig.
