I'm afraid this ick that I picked up at animeondvd.com has proven to be too much for me any my battery of antivirus/antimalware/antispyware suites.  I'm going to be nuking my hard-drive... it's the only way to be sure.

Hopefully, I'll be back online Wednesday.

UPDATE:  Reformat complete, updated to Service Pack 3, new versions of my antivirus and spyware programs, Firefox installed, yadda yadda yadda.  Tomorrow comes the fun stuff.

I don't think I lost too much.  I never saw any sign of ick in my external drives, or my mp3 files, or my pictures, so I saved them all to DVD before I started in with the sandpaper.  The one thing that I can't replace is the master version of "...Angel.", my AMV. Hopefully it's clean.

Bedtime now.

Earlier today, I was looking for a review of the show Shuffle!, and decided to visit animeondvd.com to see what they had to say about it.  I hadn't been there since they were purchased by mania.com, but I didn't think anything about it.

So, I followed a google link to their main page.

Five or six antivirus alerts later, all hell was breaking loose in my computer.  Multiple trojans, backdoor thingies, vundo deposits, and something that prevented me from visiting any of the anti-virus program manufacturers and Microsoft but allegedly wasn't the Conficker worm.  This was at 2pm.

It's now 903pm, and I think I've gotten all of it.  Five or six runs of malwarebyte's Anti-Malware, three of my antivirus program, two of my spyware program, and repeated banging of my head against a wall, everything seems to be back to normal.  Maybe.  Perhaps.

I'm still not sure, to be honest.

But do NOT go to animeondvd.
