The past few days my internet has been strange so i did a really in depth virus scan and Norton found some files got rid of them. I now have outgoing email scanning on and it's going bonkers every time i get online. It keeps saying I'm sending out emails to AOL accounts but I'm not. I obviously have something on my PC that is sending spam through my email yet nothing shows up in my sent folder. I mean it looks like 50 emails a minute are being sent. How do I get rid of this if Norton can't detect it??? Any help would be awesome.

to add to my post above I've also ran Panda & Trend Micro scans to find infected files that Norton wouldn't and it still doesn't help.

Are you doing everything mentioned in

It might be worth a lookHTH

Your copy of Outlook has been hacked! Everyone is familiar (or SHOULD be) with "Windows Update". There is also a "Office Update" feature. http://office.microsoft.com/OfficeUpdate/default.aspx
There is a security hole in Outlook that needs to be patched.

Well I installed sygate firewall and that seems to have done the trick for now. Each time I start my computer it auto dials to the internet and tries to connect to www.zmovies.net but now sygate blocks that. Anyone know what zmovies.net is???? No way I'm going to that url and I'd advice no one else to try it either. I'm guessing it is some sort of porn site since the emails it was trying send had porn stuff in the subject. I'm also patching office right now!!!

You probably have a trojan. It has turned your pc into a zombie spammer. Go HERE and run the trojan scan.
