Under properties it says :

File type:Application
Description: Ntzl
Size:5.55 KB

.. Earlier my entire desktop was filled with a blue scroll
box,Like a broswer but with no tool bar.. and inside was ''
My desktop' with a warning written across it saying i was at
high risk , something about my IP adress and it said '' they
know:..'' with a list of my computers details etc .. then
there with a few ''click here'' links , to ''fix'' the error
etc .. I left that alone

and went to downloads.com, and downloaded
SpywareDoctor...It's scanning now.. and has found 233
infections....apparently..

Any ideas?..Im not to good on the ole computeach

By far the most effective one is Microsoft Antispyware
formerly known as Giant Antispyware. You can download it
from www.microsoft.com. Of course only if you have a legal
copy of Windows 2000 or XP.
Them MS bastards keep win-tricks to themselves.

i use:

-ad aware
-spybot
-microsoft antispyware
-grisoft avg

-system mechanic (cleans invalid registry entries and system
junk)

each and every program finds different items, so i doubt
only a single one could suffice.

I am back ...
last night the computer just froze up for about fortyfive
minutes so i couldn't post :( ... The software i d/l is no
good as i have to pay to get the full version apparently ,
also it keeps blocking sites and doing things i dont
particulaly understand ...

I don't think any of the software on my computer is
legal...This computer was a christmas present from my
grandad ... and ... well , he's a cockney..

lol.. I will try some of the recommended stuff..but if i
can't figure it out..are their like..people , you can
call..to help?like.. i don't know.. a hotline?hahaha

down this way and i got a lay in this morning so im pretty
happy ..asides mr.Burns..and 200 odd other infections..

you run full system scans and check for updates regularly.

My computer is offically fucked..for the minute..I love it.

..alot.

Not only is it choc-a-bloc with SHIT ...I now can't get
online,(Im downstairs now)...or really many places even
around my computer ,to fix the issue - without it freezing
and dying on me.It is refusing to connect..no matter what i
do.
Will system restore help?If i can get it to work..Or should
i just give up,and smash it one with a heavey something...?

Thank you guys for all your 'helping-ness' ^_^

do you have windows installed on the same disk as the files
you want to backup, like music and photos?

i dont know about system restore. whenever windows is
fucked, it's always better to format and reinstall,
especially if it is infected with spyware and/or virii, IMO.

the only advice i have is to stop clicking advertisement
banners that promise thousands of new emoticons for your msn
or a bonzai buddy who'll stand by your side till death.

If so, save all of your "important" stuff (you can save any
files in gmail by emailing yourself too), then you may have
to re-format your hard drive. :( It sucks, but it may be the
only option.
