Once or twice a day my firewall disables itself. I noticed puter
moving a bit slower than normal. I have checked for viruses, ran
ad-aware, spybot and trojan hunter. Found a few things in ad-aware
including malware called Syswebtelecom, but no viruses using Norton.

I did quarantine the malware and now I am at a loss of what to do. I
am not sure system restore will help or not?

Just looking for advice what my next steps may be. I am using Black
Ice, Norton Antivirus and XP Pro.Thanks.
