On
april 16th while reading my e-mail I got an update
bulletin from Microsoft. I started the download in the
backround while reading my mail. When I went to log off I
received no message saying to install downloadds like I
ussually do. After I logged out I tried to log back into
my ISP to look something up on the internet. The modem
dialed the number but I was not allowed in to my ISP home
page. When I started to try and find out why I found that
my Mac Afee protection had shut down. I found it had
received several pronography hits at the time I was
reading my messages. I then found that my out going modem
calls had been firewalled. I did a restore to the month
before but am still firewalled on my modem. Using another
computer (this one) I am able to go right into my ISP
homepage and get my messages and use the internet. Any
ideas as to what happened to my computer and what I can do
about it.

sorry, this is an IIS forum. so you're off-topic, but :

when you say you got a 'bulletin' what exactly do you mean?

Try a general security group, this isn't related to IIS. Also,
Microsoft doesn't send emails with updates, so you'll need to clean
the trojan off your system. Ask how in that other group.
