Use either AVG from Grisoft, or AdAware S&D from Lavasoft. If you can't get them all off, search various sites for your symptoms, and follow the instructions.

The absolute best thing to do if you have viruses is to back up your data and to reinstall your computer. The programs have tendrils that reach deep into your system, it's very hard for even an expert to make sure that all bits of malicious software are removed and there's nothing lurking under the surface.

I used ad-aware and avast for checking up on things.
There's a site called 'Computer Cops' that was very helpful when I got the Cool Web Search malware installed. A lot of places have 'questions for free, but answers that cost' model...grrr...

That doesn't sound familiar. Are you sure you have not acquired a third virus?

Its not likely that you would get a virus from microsoft. More likely from Pirate bay.

The viruses could have masqueraded as Microsoft Update. They just need to know which port to go in.

huh?

Checking, with ShieldsUp! from http://www.grc.com I can see that port 1268 is listed as "propel-msgsys" with no further information, which I suspect implies that it is either an exploit that has got into you machine via this port, or maybe just normal handling (all ports from 1024 upwards, to the maximum 65535, are typically allocated dynamically).

On further inverstigation, "propel-msgsys" has something to do with the http://propel.com/ software, I believe. I'd guess it is no longer in use by them, though.

I have no idea what port 4 might have to do with it. It has not got any predefined meaning, so far as GRC says. Indeed, it is very definitely shown as "unassigned" in the official lists for ports 0-1023. I would be very suspicious of it being in use at all. Any usage would almost certainly be improper.

If you take the GRC test (all service ports), you should see everything as "stealth". If not, you are probably infected and open to more infections.

I fail the test, because I am currently running a web server. Of all the posts, just my port 80 (http) is open - and it regularly gets attacked, which my firewall and Apache handle.

Interestingly, it's been a couple of days since the last attack got as far as Apache:
Code:
189.81.46.167 - - [07/Mar/2008:13:01:08 +0000]
 "B\x92\xed\x97P\x97r`\x0fr\x84?\x
 a4\x804\xc8\xd8\xf3'" 501 358 "-" "-"

That's an example of someone (in São Paulo, Brazil) trying to exploit a current open security hole in Microsoft servers (probably) or an ancient, filled one in Apache.
