I had my Windows XP desktop affected by a series of Trojans and Worms
last week. After a couple of days, i was able to get it mostly cleaned
using a mix of Avira, AVG, Adaware and a number of other tools. I am
having the following issue after the clean up though.

It i attempt to go to any anti-virus website using Firefox or IE, i
get a page not found. These pages are accessible using Safari. All
other non-security related websites are accessible from both Firefox
and IE. If i do a search on "Free online virus scan" and go through
the first few results, none of these are accessible through FF and IE,
but reachable through Safari. I removed FF and reinstalled a fresh
version just to make sure there was no proxy being used in the form of
an addon. The same behavior continues to exist with the new install of
FF. There is no proxy set on both browsers.

The following were the malware which were reported by Avira AntiVir,
which has all been cleaned.

[DETECTION] Contains HEUR/HTML.Malware suspicious code
[DETECTION] Is the TR/Dldr.ConHook.Gen Trojan

I can't believe after all these years it is still going on. Seems that
every newsgroup has its trolls. I see that I didn't make the list this
round-oh well.

It stopped for a while and then he started it again.

Between the mis-information and personal attacks from trolls, it is very
hard to just ignore them.

You could have the nasty tdsserv.sys rootkit. Try going to device manager,
show hidden devices, go to non plug and play devices, if you see tdsserv.sys
then disable it, reboot and rerun your anti spyware software.
