I think I may have a virus, or really bad spyware

Any other program (MSN messanger, IE, AOL, ACEftp, MIRC, and some others) Will not connect. Does anyone know why these things may be happening? It's been doing this for about a month now.

NO! NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO!

NEVER turn off your firewall! EVER!

If you didn't have something before, you DEFINITELY will now. I just pray that you didn't turn off Norton as well, because then you'd be doubly fucked.

As for what to do about it, I suggest that you run CCleaner and Ewido Anti-Malware in safe mode. You know how to get in there, right?

If not, just restart and mash F8 as the computer's booting up.

HA! I STOLE THE ULTIMATE COMBO OF DEATH! EAT IT, SUCKER!

Jam it back in, in the dark.
