          I got hit with a similar one at christmas time, it was a popup virus and it was a bad one. Screwed my computer up for a good week while i worked out the bugs. And i slapped the crude out of it as well.

                Is antivirus software like Norton picking it up?

                I haven't seen it and I'm sure we would have this hit us by now with all the junk our kids download.
