Alright, I know I have a virus on my computer. It's more of an inconvienience, seeing as it doesn't cause many major problems, but I would still like some help in getting rid of it. I tried using Spybot, but that hasn't solved the problem, and I downloaded Norton, but it seems the virus closes any program that has the word "antivirus" in the title right when it starts up. Also, it blanks out the list of processes when I press ctrl+alt+delete(screenshot here: img15.echo.cx/img15/31/problem5fu.jpg), so I can't shut it down manually. Any tips? I'm open to suggestion here.

The best there is, Hitman Pro 2! It's an all in 1 program, you don't have to click anything. It all automatically starts up the programs and cleans your computer with the best virus/spyware etc. programs there are. It contains: - Ad-Aware SE (6.2) - Spy Sweeper 3 - Spybot Search & Destroy 1.3 - CWShredder 2.14 - SpywareBlaster 3.3 - Spyware Block List - Sysclean Package - SuperDAT VirusScan www.hitmanpro.nl (It's in Dutch, but there's also a English version. I only currently know the link for the Dutch version.) If Hitman Pro 2 can't erase it, I don't know what can! ;D

Thanks, I'll just push the OK button over and over again until it works.
Still looking for suggestions in case this doesn't work

Wish I could, but half my stuff won't run on a mac. Anyway, I just nuked the virus with a good old fashioned system restore. Everything's back to normal now.

Yeah, most of the games I play won't work on Mac OSX, save for my blizzard titles.
