Eldmannen Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Sounds like something that changes the IE startpage or something. Antivirus websites usually have some database of all virus and trojans, with information on what they do, what files they infect, what ports they use, what registry key the change, and how to remove them, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
