If you think it's infected, might want to run a virus scan.  You can perform a free virus scan at www.trendmicro.com.\n\nHope this helps!\nZ.

Hey, i had the same problem few months ago...that was a virus..i tried everything but wasnt able to catch..i had one antispyware and 1 antivirus..but no help from them..\nso last option was SYSTEM RESTORE..GO TO \nstart > accesories > system tools > system restore..\n\nthis is a program that restores your computers setting..\nselect a date when your computer was working good (1-2 weeks or something)..BUT REMEMBER..you will lose all data that you have installed during that period..so take few minutes to think about selecting your date.\n\nand believe me, everything will be fine..\n\nstill have problem..let me know..\n\nhope it helps..

I would recommend that you use Yahoo mail and forget about OUTLOOK.  95% of the virus attacks come in on Outlook.  It is the favorite vehicle of dastardly villans because it is a commonly used part of most people's Windows operating system.\n\nI deleted Outlook from my computer and my problems almost vanished.  The rest of my problems went away when I stopped using Internet Explorer and switched to Maxthon browser.\n\nJohnny

each virus is different, so you'd need to know which one it was...or know in-depth how your os works (and that is a book, not a post at yahoo answers)

because i have very good anti-virus protection I have just been to this site with my virtual computer and there is no virus there . What may have happened is that your home page has been hijacked. Try this Tools->internet options-->in the home page box if it reads the site you keep getting taken to change it to a site of your choice. It seems the people behind the web site just want you to download their software, but if you do then you will have loads of problems. As soon as possible restart your computer and enter safe mode by pressing the f8 key, then run a full spyware anti virus check.

AVG Ant-Virus\n\nFree updates etc.  Does NOT use a lot of your RAM!\n\nI've been using it for over 3 years, NO PROBLEMS!  It even scans incoming and outgoing mail!\n\nLook it up in any search engine, there's great reviews about it!\n\n:)

If you tried all that already, next try to reboot or restart your computer, if that does not do the job, you should have some sort of spy ware to run.  Try using that to check for any more viruses, just to let you know once your system has been attacked it's very hard to free your system from them.  They become attachments in places you would not believe!  If your problems are not resolved I suggest consulting a professional, GL.

Run your anti virus and spyware checkers to see if you are infected.. If it is web based mail the problem may be with the \nmail server and just waiting an hour may fix it

It is not a virus. If your computer go blank then it is most likely the power saving setting are set to go off after 20 minutes. nine does that and all I do is hit any key on my keyboard.\n\nAny key will do it and it will go back to your desktop.\n\nYou do need adaware and Spybot S & D for spyware. Update it and run it every couple of days.\n\nGet the free version of AVG.\n\nYou can use ZA but I just use the windows firewall and I do not open any mail that I do not know and I do not open any spam at all.\n\nOpen only mail you know and you should be safe.\n\nDo not download any programs that you do not know. Most free ones are loaded with spyware.\n\nHope this helps.\n\nDavid

I use AVG Anti-Virus, it's good & free. The Yahoo toolbar has a pop-up blocker that you can turn on. Also Ad-Aware from Lavasoft.

All anti virus vendors have already updated their clients so if you have an anti virus software please update it and run a scan on your computer. The virus being a mass mailer, will use your yahoo address book to send mails. If possible please do not use the old yahoo site, please use the new yahoo site by visiting www.yahoo.com because that virus cannot mess up with the new site. Hope that answers your question. Good luck.

I bet the only "virus" you have is probably YMessenger itself!  \nThis is quite a common problem, and unfortunately noone I know has a good answer (please DON'T waste time "reinstalling" - I believe the chance of THAT fixing it is about 0.0001%).\n\nKeep an eye on this forum, where the subject is being keenly discussed: http://www.bigblueball.com/forums/showthread.php?t=34181&referrerid=62526
