Malware Posing as Security Center Alert

2 min read

This thread's last reply is from March 20, 2009, 5:04 AM UTC. Software, malware, and removal-tool advice below may be out of date — treat specific steps and download links with caution.

Over the last 24 hours, my computer has been infected by something that causes pop-ups in both Firefox and Internet Explorer windows. I ran Spybot and Ad-Aware to no effect. Now I receive a message claiming to be a "Security Center Alert" offering to block a Win32.BackDoor-DNM worm. I've read that this alert is bogus so I haven't touched it. Also, my computer is intermittently rebooting itself for reasons I can only assume are associated with this malware attack. Any help is greatly appreciated. The HiJackThis log is pasted below:
