Answer» Hi, Can anyone help me I seem to have picked up a virus/worm or something that causes my MODEM to try to reconnect after I have disconnected from the internet and when i disable my modem a message appears that says kthx.owns-u.com. I have tried to rid my computer of this problem by downloading ad aware and spybot and i have alsotried to reseach the problem on GOOGLE with not much luck. Please help cheers emackj Viruses and Worms are not ad/malware.
