AVG SHOULD have been ok'ed...it was probably updating! Anti-virus programs update all the time. You are infected because you DON'T have an active anti-virus program. Yes, WinPatrol would ask you...it is supposed to but AVG is SUPPOSED to have access, it cannot protect you unless it does.

I'm not a noob. I've dealt with quite a few on my own before. Like I said though...I've read other posts (not on this site, but others) that this virus can add fake files that add the suffix of a currently-installed virus scanner on your computer (i.e. "sbsd/dsfgddgfdgdfg.dll" or whatever) so that you choose to allow them and/or ignore them when you're trying to fix the problem. And like I said...it was the ".dll" ending that scared me...usually when scotty asks if a certain program is OK, it's a clear-cut ".exe" that I'm fully familiar with.
