    c:/resycled/boot.com

    ok this thing keeps popping up on my spyware terminator's real-time shield, i blocked it, and its also trying to make java programs open every 10-20 seconds, i dont know exactly what it is, i've tried running some antivirus and searchs and dont understand whats going on, i blocked them and they keep coming up blocked in the real-time shield list (also is there any way to get this to stop popping up, its kind of annoying. also, i ran an AVG scan and it said there was a change in the boot sector of C:, and that autorun.ini? is infected, is there any way to fix this?

    It's part of some particularly annoying malware. It'll also usually spread to any removable devices you plug in.

    9 times outta 10 I wind up reformatting when it's something like that, 'cause some of the Vundo variants n' such lately seem to be a few steps ahead of the removal tools.

    man you know how i got these, i was on internet explorer for like 20 seconds a few days ago by accident, and apparently even visiting my school site can give me a virus, that browser really is a piece of shit...

    ooh sorry i was wrong about the tubby.dll, that disappeared now too now however, i still have an autorun.inf worm/virus, and a boot sector of C: change, was that the vundo thing you were talking about?

    thanks a ton for your help guys =) i'm a total computer noob lol
