Thank You!!

Hmm...I also found this link for you, as after reading the post you made one more time, I found it unusual that NTOSKRNL.exe would keep trying to access the Internet. You *may* have a virus, read here:

Thanks Guys,

I read the virus list. I am a mIRC user, now I am very concerned. I just built a new computer last week. Got the bugbear virus, still trying to retreive data off the fried hard drive of the last one. I run Norton ALL of the time. Wouldn't this find it if I had a virus?

I'm very scared, I own a payroll service and can not afford to catch another virus and be down again. Please help me if there are any more utilities I can run or anywhere else to check to see if I do have this.

Thank you
