When I try starting Firefox browser in my PC a window appears "I don't hate Firefox but use IE dope or else.......". I am not allowed to use firefox. It appears to be a virus. I have downloaded the latest version of AVG and tested all areas but did not find any virus. Can anyone help resolve the issue

Yep.. It is an Orkut (W32.USBWorm) worm...

I highly recommend purchasing a antivirus from a reliable vendor like mcafee, properly configuring it, and ensuring it is automatically updating.. this is what you pay for.

This spreads through USB drives. Along with firefox, it also prevents you opening Orkut and Youtube. It gives the alert “orkut\youtube is banned you fool” and closes the window immediately. For firefox, it gives the alert “use IE you dope” and closes the Firefox window. It also plays a .wav file (which sounds as “muhahaha!!) whenever the alerts pop-up.

How it works?

? It creates a folder with name heap41a in C drive that will be disguised as system folder with hidden attributes enabled and copies all its contents in that heap41a folder.

? The running process that is responsible for this is svchost.exe and it will be spawned under user name.
