    OKay i been using internet unprotected! idiot! well no i have installed Norton Internet Security, AV etc etc... because i got a wallpaper on my desktop saying the following

    YOUR SYSTEM IS INFECTED on desktop
    Hi all, i have a new wallpaper on my desktop that i can not remove. it says """system has been stopped due to serious malfunction. SPyware activity has been detected. It is reccomended to use spyware removal tool to prevent data loss. DO not use the computer before all spyware removed."""

    when i drag my mouse over this i get a text cursor, however i cant do anything. I have tried to replace this with other wallpaper but cant do this as i cant select another wallpaper. I have downloaded Norton Internet Security 2005 from symantec website. this is still not resolved. does anyone have a clue as to what i am exeriencing cos i have noty got a clue
