So far within one week, I have been asked to look at 2 PC's. When I looked at the screen, the Internet Explorer appeared as a "My Computer" window, then there was a window in the center of the display which listed trojans found and a dialogue window above that saying to 'press ok to repair or cancel' (I regret not taking a screendump). Well, I wasn't about to hit ok or cancel, but I hit the red 'x' at the top of that window and it just puts you into a loop and keeps coming back, then I shut down IE and everything disappeared. I reopened IE and it was normal. I proceeded with the 8-steps, but haven't found anything (I should post the hijack log since I can't really read it all).
Please note, I only did the 8-step on one computer, the other only went as far as a virus scan with my "Avast U3" version on my flash drive, and then the Norton 360 installed-both returned positive. Has anyone seen something like this? Might it be a fancy pop-up?
