Mikie, you're right...something was going on. I ran Malwarebytes this evening and came up with the following log. Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware 1.36 Database version: 2112 Windows 5.1.2600 Service Pack 3 05/11/2009 8:57:48 PM mbam-log-2009-05-11 (20-57-48).txt Scan type: Full Scan (C:\:) Objects scanned: 130796 Time elapsed: 38 minute(s), 40 second(s) Memory Processes Infected: 0 Memory Modules Infected: 0 Registry Keys Infected: 3 Registry Values Infected: 0 Registry Data Items Infected: 0 Folders Infected: 0 Files Infected: 0 Memory Processes Infected: (No malicious items detected) Memory Modules Infected: (No malicious items detected) Registry Keys Infected: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\amd64si (Rootkit.Agent) -> Quarantined and deleted successfully.

I had a terrible virus a few weeks ago and Landzdown helped me clear it up. Does this last log mean I'm ok? I wonder why AVG didn't find it?
