Thanks for the removal tool, Harley! It found a suspicious file in my computer.

Wow Nicole.. good thing you got it! Here Jo.. You should be able to get to it straight from your computer though, through Windows Update, which is on your computer.  update.microsoft.com/microsoftupdate |

It says windows is up to date. So I don't have to do anything then?

You should still run the program that Harley sent a download link for. Never hurts to go the extra mile.

So far everything seems good on my end. Most likely you're okay, Jo, since the update site came up for you. |

I don't think I want to download a removal tool if I have nothing to remove. We have AVG paid Security three pack. That should pick it up shouldn't it, if I had it?

I just now followed that link Harley posted and it doesn't say it's for Vista.  I wouldn't worry about it Jo. If nothing has gone wonky with your system, I figure you are fine. |

Well,this isn't a virus(i don't think) but when i was playing my computer,i had the music turned down and when i turned it up to see if my sim was going to have a baby,I heard talking through my speakers.They were talking about getting a dell and they were talking like pirates. Well,i didn't make a big deal out of this so i minimized my game to see if i left the internet on and maybe one of the advertizments could speak and stuff.but the internet wasn't on  .this is when i was beginning to be a little scared.i went downstairs to call my mom at work and she said it was very weird.Is this some sort of hack? i havn't heard any strange talking since then but still.it was very creepy. |

That is kind of strange. I wonder if it's possible you somehow picked up a phone conversation? I know baby moniters have picked up mobile phone conversations from near by.

good point,Jo.That also happened when I was hiking in the woods and i had my walky talky. I was really high up in the mountains so it was easy to get radio signals.I heard something and I thought there was just a house near by with people in it but then when it didn't sound like people i got scared.It sounded like...Rugrats? I don't know but it was scary hearing other signals through your speakers and walky talkies.
