    Default Fire Virus... thingy... HELP!

    Ok I got this problem with my computer... every like 10-20 minutes that its inactive it does this...
    ok its right there... its an attachment... I saw an advertisement online that said "DO you wanna watch a computer BURN!" and then i was like "SURE!" and it took me to this site, then this other site, I didn't fill out any forms but then i finally watched the video and at the end MY COMPUTER CAUGHT FIRE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    ok, yeah... lol, sorry its ok, can someone help me? though it doesn't look like its hurting anything... its a really cool effect... and i think i pressed ctrl-alt-f once just messing around and again my comp caught on fire... really cool effect to bad it might be a virus...
    OH! And before you say scan... uh, me no scan, cuz me no security on comp because it don't make life easy... *basicly my computer don't got any security system/program cuz they all ask me "Do you want to do this?" when i really need it lol... its like "No, thanks for catching me though!" but really when i click yes, it asks me again, thats why i don't have security systems... because there a major pain...
    thanks!

    It looks like an old screen saver I used to have, but if it is a virus you may have to reformat and reinstall your OS. Other than that, no clue. Also, you may want to get some sort of antivirus/anitspyware programs so that you can be protected against similar things in the future.

    Hope this helps.

    I don't like anti-virus software, lol, its annoying to upkeep, you say it was a screensaver, ok, i'll be fine, cuz i back up my stuff onto an encrypted hardrive everyday which i don't know how i'm going to get it off lol cuz the encryption key is encrypted it self... lol... but if its a screen saver *which i think it is* it probably is harmless...

    I shudder to think how infested your machine must be. Accepting files from Rockonmetal is not a good idea, folks :-P

    I have no security programs either, for they are annoying, if there is a problem i check startup, services, and the \system32\ dir. if anythings odd i fix it, if there is an odd .dll in the system32 dir i also scan the registry to stop it from trying to load it
