is this a virus?

i was just talking to someone on msn and as i was talking i was trying to open internet explorer, as i did about 15/16 pages opened on their own and wouldnt close, in one of the windows i noticed it said 'teabaging - wikipeadia' (or however you spell it) i still couldnt close any of the windows and had to restart my pc.

has anyone any ideas about what just happened?

someones sending you messages lol

try downloading and scanning with spyware dr... its pretty good at picking them up and it must have got past whatever you use..

Re: is this a virus?

I think Emzt has avg (i may be wrong) and thats what stopped me passing it on to her when i had it... have you had a look at my msn virus thread to see if its the same one? Its pretty easy to get rid of (i managed lol)

Re: is this a virus?

ive now got AVG 8.0 on...which is what i put on this morning then i took it off because it gave me the AVG toolbar which i didnt want, but cant get rid of, thats why i uninstalled AVG this morning...it says no virus's found now so i doubt i have any, still cant understand what happened lol
