MSN Virus - HELP!

[jdixo17]

I appear to have a virus on my Windows Live Messenger. The computer would just stop, then my contacts would flicker on then off. I would usually have to press Ctrl + Alt + DEL to end the MSN proccess. When I log back into msn, people would tell me I send a thing that says something like "HAHA Foto =D" and a link which I don't remember what it was.

Is there anyway I can remove it. I have tried re-installing it several times, ran my anti-virus program (MalwareBytes) and AVG which I had to un-install in safe mode because my computer wouldn't boot with it.

If it does help, I am using Windows XP SP2

Do you have any idea what the name of the virus is? (CTRL + ALT + DEL)

OR make a HijackThis log and check for suspicious files.

Do you think you could point something out that shouldn't be there ?

[Hidduh]

(Do not delete backups or system restore points)

When did you get this virus?

[jdixo17]

About a month ago... I think.

My younger brother installed a add-on for msn called "Bandoo". I wasn't aware that he did it until I used it.

[jdixo17]

I don't really wan't to do a restore. I will lose alot of my files and programs that I have recently put on my computer. But thanks anyway

[Lionel Valdes]

Watch your Brother Actions Next time,i watch him 24/7, Tell me the name of the files or programs you have?

[Julio.]

my advice, back up all of your 'My Documents on an external hard drive' and FORMAT your computer, wipe everything off, start again.

Take that you big bad virus!

Get bad marks and play Argo?
