System Error(RESOLVED)

Hello

When I open folders in Windows Explorer I receive a system error message. An image of this error is attached to my post.

This is caused by a virus or spyware I am sure but I have scanned my computer with AVG Internet Security 8.0 and with Spybot Search And Destroy. With both of these applications, threats were found but they were all removed.

However, the error still appears even after I have removed all these threats.

When I tested and clicked ok on the dialog box, my computer opened up http://ieavdownloadstart.com/ieav.exe and displayed a download box.

My AVG Internet Security tells me this threat is Fake_AntiSpyware.SC.

Now when I click on ok on the download box it says the page cannot be displayed.

It is probably that my AVG is blocking the file which is good.

The error no longer appears when I open folders. Thank you very much for your help.

That log is clean, everything ok then?
