Any suggestion for me?? yes...when i download that file fr hotmail...it has been scanned . but no virus is detected. then i download and put in my System folder in my Window folder. as screen saver will only can run after save into the System folder. so after i save it in the folder and install it....it has shown in my screen saver - Desktop display..but nothing show..means no screen saver. But i have found a file (notepad) named "yEaHa" something like this..that the contents stated that the main purpose is to spread the yEaHa and they didnt state that he/she is hacker. just that at the bottom stated a email add which is something like [EMAIL PROTECTED] then i have found that all my files in "My Documents" have bcame transparent. and other files in C drive also bcame transparent. and it has ticked "Hidden" in the file property. but i hav unclick it but it still in transparent . In my System folder has a lot of Love icons with diff names like "girls" , "Love xxx" etc. all in Love icons, after i hav installed the file (Love icon) screen svaer file which is named "Friends Happy". >From: "Kazan, Naim" >To: "'Richard Campbell'" >Subject: RE: Is a Virus or Hacker attack??
