Hello,

I have a virus which is sending messages to the ISP and is clogging the system resulting in having all my computers blocked from using internet from this ISP. I tried a number of virus scanner, Anti Malware, Anti Adware, Syboot but still no result. The only thing I can find is that when I run Free AVG is gives me the following file C:\WINDOWS\System32\drivers\etc\hosts with result as changed.

CAn this be it, I tried many things but cannot seem to solve the problem.

Please help someone as it is driving me crazy.

These are three online scanners -- run one at a time -- Run in SAFE MODE/NETWORKING

This may take 1 hour or more for each to run -- if possible save report and print report

If you have it saved to a file you can reference it if you need it -- good idea
