"JS.Seeker" virus??

Mr. Norton antivirus found JS.seeker in my comp. Supposedly it is a Trojan Horse,...Could this possibly be some kind of Spyware or that software that AG installs when AG is installed?

And if so, should I be worried?

dunno about spyware...i think JS is for javascript

it appears to be from some dodgy websites who want to force a page as ur default/startup page

thanx for the link Fraggle.

i dont pay too much attention to this Norton stuff....my friend installed it last time.....i've never had a virus wipe out my HDD so i guess i'm not really paying too much attention. I'll do whatever Mr. Norton tells me to do with that virus....

thanx again.

ya, not too much to worry about...just remember to update ur virus definitions regularly & all should be smooth

It's not the spyware that's associated with AG...
I forgot the name of the spyware file that AG uses, but if you install ad-aware, and get the latest ref. file, it should take care of it...
Good luck.
