It's called "Outfox"

It's a terrible virus that no programs can get rid of, at least in XP. A friend
sent me a cure tonight, and it worked!!!

I am posting the link in "Consumer Help" where it belongs, but am posting about it here as a public service. It's the worst thing I've ever had happen since having a computer.

I was afraid to go into it too much because this post belongs in another group, "Computers & Internet."

I didn't want to post it there because too many people wouldn't see it, and I wanted it to stick in your minds.

I was plagued with this vicious virus for 3 weeks, nearly drove me nuts...

Sometimes the hosts will pull a subject that they feel belongs (in this case rightfully) in another group.
