I have ms essentials.  never had a problem.  well once i actually did notice somebody maxed out my gas card.  it turned out to be my son who used the card I gave to his sister for emergencies.  I knew i should've used a condom at least once.

Reformat was the only viable solution in the end. That was a nasty one.

I run ESET Smart Security 5.

Same using anything else doesn't make sense.  It is far too good.  I had a virus similar to yours McAfee found nothing.  Installed ESET did a sweep everything was quarantined or deleted and my computer runs like new.

This is just an older notebook we use for browsing. I am beginning to think you are right.

If that's what you use it for, I fully recommend downloading and installing Ubuntu linux on the computer. You can surf without worry about viruses after that - and all regular stuff will work. Youtube, flash games etc.
