bling.exe is a W32 worm

Do an Online AV scan (when in safe mode) from

Trend Micro Online Scan: http://housecall.trendmicro.com/
or/and
Panda Online Scan: http://www.pandasoftware.com/activescan/

then run theses two application (update them first) so that your system is spyware free

Spybot Search & Destroy: http://www.safer-networking.org/index.php?page=download
AND
Adaware SE: http://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware/

Remember to have an antivirus always installed on your system, for a free one try AVG (http://www.grisoft.com/) or Avast(http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html)

Also, if you have windows xp, you have windows messenger..it is automatically included unless you remove it manually.

(hey TechZ..can you run an online scanner in safe mode?)

How do I remove the messenger? I have AVG 7.0 and spy bot on my computer so I run them to get rid of the pop up?

[TechZ]

I was wondering that too geoscomp, no harm in trying ;)

update AVG7.0 Ky.Rose, and then in Safe Mode, run a full system scan.

Also go here http://mirror.edskes.com/
and download the NOD32 AV standalone file and run a scan in Safe Mode. its just a standalone exe version, not a replacement for AVG. And yes run Spybot and install and run Adaware.

I wanting to if there is a way that I tell how many times windows xp is on my computer? I had a trojan in it a couple of days ago, and I reinstalled the windows Xp about 3 times and now my computer is real slow.

[TechZ]

Virus/Trojans wont go away by reinstalling xp, unless you format your pc and then install xp. To boot into safe mode, http://www.pchell.com/support/safemode.shtml
scroll down to XP.

and for NOD32, try any of them.

[NooNoo]

for trojans and worms get a-squared www.emsisoft.com They have a free version as well as a paid version.
