kpoi,
Turn on Windows Firewall.
Update and run Windows Defender.
Download and run Spybot Search & Destroy.
Go to
http://www.f-secure.com/security_center/
run an "online check" of your system from their site.
Download their free anti-rootkit software.
Turn off and Disable McAffee (which I suspect the malware has messed =
with).
Download and install AVG or Avast or ESET NOD32. All are free for a =
short period of time and AVG has an unlimited-time free version.
During all of this time, only go online when needed to fetch/utilize the =
above-mentioned.
