magicgroceries?

[Buffalo]

New popup on Internet explorer software, "magicgroceries"
firewall alert "magicgroceries" wants to connect to the web!
started last night, But I thought it was something to do with the MSN 8 beta install I did very recently.
Just updated pest patrol & it's found 1 item Grokster p2p!!! wtf is that?
Registry Hkey_classes_Root\Magnet , that may be the problem but unsure.

Not had any problem for a long time on this pc, And not seen this one before.
very little on google about magicgroceries apart from the shareholders info.

I did find that magicgroceries.net has the same ip as on my firewall
the site is not accessible, 403 error
and is hosted by thewebbrains.com/

Don't know if anyone else has had this popup?

any advice apricated :)

Have you tried posting a HijackThis log on the log analyzer here (http://www.hijackthis.de/)?

It will tell you if you have any known spyware or malware running behind the scenes. And even tell you which registry keys to have the hijackthis app "fix".

Also try a virus scanner and Adware/Spyware scanner.

Do your scanning from safemode for a better chance of deletion. Sounds like a Browser hijack.

Thank you for the info :)

Like I said in my fist post, not had a problem till now with my PC.

I have been working on a friends computer, just my luck :(

She had moved it, "as some do" then plugged it back in the power supply and the power pack Blew up!
I have no idea how or why, but It may of been live at the time.

I put her hard drive in my computer to see if it was running ok,
but did not take it back out after the test.
I cant understand why AVG did not pick anything up before now.
I've just ran a full test on that drive with a bit of a shock!

Results = http://www.sheringhamsurf.com/data/140306.html

I've never seen anything like it. 1059 Viruses!!!

Great shame I put that in my PC, can't make myself out at times.
Well, I could remove most of the crap from her drive,
but AVG won't touch it.
So the best thing is just give her back her pc with a new power pack in,
But I've not got the time to fix the viruses at the mo
:lol: run away :)

I'm just glad my PC is ok

Thanks from Celebs :)
