Default Unsolicited sites


Within last day I received sites that I have not visited. I'm using Windows
XP and I have PC_cillin anti-virus installed. What can I do to stop this?

open up your registry editor and look for "stcloader.exe"
if something pops up then you have the downloader.trojan
also ... try the online scans they can help you track it down
also this article will help as well if it's the downloader.trojan
