    I'm pretty certain I have virus on my PC, but I don't know which one so I'm having difficulty getting information on it.

    Basically I formatted my PC recently and stupidly forgot to install my antivirus and firewall stuff before going back online. A few days later and my computer starts acting wierd. I noticed it first when my hard drive (60gb) was almost full despite the fact that I haven't installed much since the reboot and most of my files are still on the other partition.
    Anyway I deleted some of the crap I had downloaded on a p2p and about 2 minutes later the PC tells me the drive is full again. I reinstalled my virus software but "something" wont let me run it now and because it's old and in need of a update it probably wouldnt detect anything until I updated it.

    Anyone know what virus this is so I can do a manual install?

    Not a security issue - repost on the MAC / UNIX / Windows forums
    or if you aren't sure what OS ( you didn't mention it or version !!! ) you are using use the computers forum.

    50% of kazza downloads have viruses/malware - there endith the topic as far as security is concerned.
