For any tekkies out there: Something has a hold of my computer and it keeps resetting my home page to this:
http://www.securityuptodate.net/
A window pops up telling me the dangers of this virus: W32.Myzor.FK@yf
There is also a window telling me my IP, where I am located and stuff, I guess a hi-tech version of "We know where you are, where your kids sleep, etc." It tells me to download software. I have not done so because it just doesn't look right.
I swept my machine with McAfee a couple of times and it killed a Trojan virus I had picked up, and said it was now clean. I also ownloaded and ran Windows Defender from Microsoft and it said everything is fine.
The most irritating thing is this "Net Security" page in the above mentioned URL keeps defaulting itself to become my home page, no matter how many times I reset it.
Anyone have any idea of what this might be?
