Hey.
A couple of hours ago, I was redirected to a **** site from some gay thing and the computer went crazy, then Norton’s picked up a couple of virus’s, but removed them. After that, the home page on Internet Explorer turned to a blue page with this address: C:\WINDOWS\secure.html
And has this on it.
Detected SPYware! System error #384

It’s a site with a program that costs $50 and says will protect me.
Now, my question is, should I worry about this? It’s freaking me out because as soon as I change the homepage, it changes right back. It also says I’m using Mozilla, which I don’t. I use MSN Explorer, and sometime IE, but unless MSN is mozilla, then no. I’ve tried Adaware 6 and it found somethings, which it removed, but still the problem remains. I also ran SpyBot search and destroy, which found and fixed some things, but still, the problem remains.
Thanks for your help.
P.S. Don’t ****ing say “Oh what are you doing looking at ****?” because I wasn’t. I clicked on a picture that I found on a google image search, so don’t even think about it or I’ll crack the serious sloppy ****s.
