Exclamation virus in my documents

(more information at the bottom) ok i have gotten some popups at the bottom right hand corner of my screen next to the clock with a picture of a red dot with an X in the middle. well ,it says that i have a virus or something and that it needs to be fixed by clicking here. When u click on it it comes up with a online anti virus program that wants to install on my computer. I have down loaded free trials of anti virus programs, i have used McAfee, Norton antivirus, AGV. Now on my My Documents i have found 14,500 files (taking up around 3GB)that all seem to be made from the same people and were created on the same day that i got my virus. Well i tried to delete them and it did but after a few minutes or the next restart i find that the files will be re-created. I need a way to get rid of them. some examples of the file names are pos1,pos1a, pos1a00, pos1aob...and so on for all 14,500 of them....also below i have a picture of the files

Hello and welcome to

Go and read the Viruses/Spyware/Malware, preliminary removal instructions. Follow all the instructions exactly.

Post fresh HJT, AVG Antispyware and Combofix logs as Attachments into this thread, only after doing the above.

Also, let me know the results of the Panda Antirootkit scan.

Regards Howard

This thread is for the use of sirwcc1 only. Please don`t post your own virus/spyware problems in this thread. Instead, open a new thread in our malware Removal forum.
