Virus Alert

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

URGENT HELP, PEASE! I have been trying to access my MySQL database and malware that seems to come from Microsoft (but clearly does not) intrudes and warns I have a dangerous virus that needs to be removed. Before clicking okay, I checked on the Web and found out what it realy is.

I went back to the 'intrusion' and attempted to close it. It took no notice and started to install itself. I then spent hours tracking down what I thought was every bit of it and removing it, including all cookies. It still comes up when I try to get on with work and back to my database -- but I'm a relative newbie who knows next to nothing about computes, so I must have missed something.

I know it's Saturday but I'm hoping that a member who has met the problem (my sympathies) sees this and knows how to get rid of it. It is called Virus Alert 2009 and comes from http://windows-defense.com/2009/1/fr...php?aid=880147 – Windows Internet Explorer (or so it says).

Your advice will be greatly appreciated.

Sydney
