Watch out for this new nasty spy ware/virus It is very hard to remove, in some instances it even stops Ad-Aware, and Google search from working, although yahoo and others are unaffected.

This pest is called Braviax, it will try to access the internent immediately on start up, and then every minute or so, after that very annoying bubble pops in the bottom right hand corner of your screen, which tells you that Windows has detected spyware and you need to allow windows to down load specialised anti spyware, but instead it down loads more spyware. It also places a small red circle with a white cross in the centre, down in the right hand corner in the tray near the clock.

Zone alarm blocks it from going out, so what ever you do, DO NOT click on the bubble message, or it wil download a muchly plenitude of spyware, which will eventually slow you tin box to a crawl


Watch out, they say the bubble that keeps appearing is very annoying, and it very hard to get shut of.
