"Application cannot be executed. The file "---" is infected"

Today at some point all this "Antivirus Software" started popping up telling me how my computer was terribly infected and I need to downloaded their software to get rid of it etc. Well I never had that software so I knew something was wrong. Now I keep getting these "Antivirus software alert" popups that say INFILTRATION ALERT - Your computer is being attacked by an internet virus etc etc and gives details and asks if I want to block this attack. But mainly popups come up every 30 seconds or so saying, "Application cannot be executed. The file wmiadap.exe is infected. Do you want to activate your antivirus software now?" I noticed the file changes. Sometimes rundll32.exe or wuauclt.exe. I ran SuperAntiSpyware before I found here because it was the only thing suggested that I could find. I only got it to work in the short window that I had when I would restart my computer, then could download the file quickly, then I had to restart again and start the scan because after about 2 minutes, everything on my computer is worthless. Can't open any files, downloads, anything. So I'm typing this through a sea of popups and Security Warning windows and past porn popups. Anyways, any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Hello yonatan11,

What OS is this? If it's XP, there still may be remnants even after using System Restore. It would be worth your while to allow someone to review the system. Please follow the instructions in our sticky topic New Instructions - Read This Before Posting for Malware Removal Help and post the requested logs in your next reply.

If you have trouble with one of the steps, simply move on to the next one, and make note of it in your reply.

Good idea. Yeah running XP. No Boot Disc or Windows Install CD as I have no disc drive on this computer (netbook).

Thanks. :)

I'm not seeing an Anti Virus program installed. This must be resolved. Connecting to the Internet without antivirus protection is a "Welcome" doormat for malware.

Here are 2 very good free Antivirus products which are available:Select one of these, or another of your choice. Download, install, update definitions, and run a full system scan.

Post the results of the scan when it has completed.
