Subject: msbb...virus or not? |
Comment: There's this thing on my computer called msbb and it's always screwing my computer up! Is it a virus? Or is it something that I absolutely have to have on my computer? I'm not too smart on some things when it comes to computers but I think it must be a virus :( If it is a virus or something I dont need, can anyone tell me how to get rid of it? Every time I scan for viruses it says I dont have any but I think virus scanners dont catch everything. Anyway, the MSBB thing causes lines to come up on my computer screen and makes it move weird...like the screen will move in and out, over and over again until I close MSBB and then it usually makes it stop so I think it sounds like a virus! :( I dont wanna lose my computer, so someone please help. Thanks

Reply: It's not a virus, msbb is an 'Adware parasite'. http://www.doxdesk.com/parasite/nCase.html Download 'Hijack This!'. Unzip, doubleclick HijackThis.exe, and hit "Scan". When the scan is finished, click "Save Log", and copy and paste it in a reply. HijackThis!
