Unwanted websites gaining access of my private network.
This sounds a lot like the popmon.a virus or Popmonster virus...I had this nasty bugger earlier this month. Go to the posting <Opening multiple browser windows...virus?> posted on 1/15. Someone helped walk me through the steps to getting this off of my computer...hope this helps you.- nrtek

Opening multiple browser windows...virus?
My computer keeps opening random browser windows. If left on overnight I will have 10 windows open. I have run McAffee & Ad-aware and found nothing. Just removed the VX2.BetterInternet virus and thought that would do it. Any suggestions?- nrtek
