Hi all, I am running Windows Vista 32b. I have this issue, whenever I try to open my hard drive, it gives me a message saying some dangerous files found on C:, windows vista home files are corrupt (they arent), and then it sends me to some link for IE Virus Removal which is know is just more spyware. Does anyone have any ideas for me to try?, I have tried scanning with AVG, Windows Defender, and many others. Tonight I will let them run a full system scan to see if anything comes up.

ok, after the deep scan from AVG is done running, I will restart my computer and try the scanner that the other poster gave me, and see what I get, after that I will download spy sweeper from hijackthis and scan. If nothing I will repost, or try again tomorrow. If i need any major help, I will pm you, thank you for your help Korg
