My girlfriend called me and told me she had a weird virus that she could not quarantine. She hasn't been downloading anything or stuff like that.

She said that last night she got on MySpace but didn't click things, just went through some profiles. Is there any way she could have gotten the virus through MySpace?

I've been hearing of a lot of folks who have had problems with myspace and viruses....that site should just be scrapped.

was she using ie and did she have all of her windows updates applied? it's possible, but highly unlikely it came from myspace

she's probably missing a windows security patch and got a worm

As far as I know she was using Firefox.

Her computer continually tells her it can't quarantine the virus and as soon as soon as she opens a browser window she gets all kinds of warnings.

Since this started the Symantec Installer keeps popping up.

I have done searching for what may be causing this and how to solve it but haven't found anything yet. Anyone know what this could be?
