I have a problem, I've got a big annoying error message and it won't go away. It says "Spyware detected on your computer, install an anti-virus spyware remover to clean your computer" then it says the bugs are called Win32/Adware.Virtumonde and Win32/PrivacyRemover.M64. I've ran my Ad-aware anti spyware thing twice and it doesn't help
"Runtime Error! Program (blahblahblah) R6034 An application as made an attempt to the C runtime library incorrectly. Please contact the application's support team for more information."
WTF does that mean...now it won't go away either.

Check your c:\windows\system32 folder for recently created/modified files. Virtumonde spyware creates some files there with extensions .dll and .ini. You most certainly need to start your computer in safe mode to delete them. Sometimes even safe mode doesn't help, and you need to connect the hard disk to a different computer and delete the infected files there.
Virtumonde starts with each computer start by placing a start-up command into registry, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Run. You must also check this location for suspicious lines.

YAY! after sending half the afternoon trying to load Spybot (dial-up sucks)it finally worked. The annoying warning message is gone and so is the blue desktop background.
Thanks 4chan, I don't know why nobody likes you, you're good people. (or atleast you know what the fuck you're doing anyway I sure don't)
