Unhappy ActiveX virus/spyware infecting me, and keyboard going insane!!
ok so by mistake, I was about to download the ActiveX to make some video stream work online, but turned out it's a big virus.

Now, whenever I want to open any folder, I get this > http://img141.imageshack.us/img141/4953/sc1sk1.jpg

My NOD32 is not telling me I have a virus, and Spybot is deleting spywares, but this is still in my laptop. I have a Windows XP by the way.


Also, about two or three days ago, something really weird has been happening to my keyboard.

When I press Shift+i it acts as if am pressing F11 and gives me a Full Screen of my browser
Shift + u acts as an undo button, like Ctrl + Z
and Shift + Space gives an underscore _

So, why is this happening? How can i fix this? Please help

I think you have trojan fake alert or maybe a smitfraud variant.
You should go to the malware board and post a hijackthis log for an expert to analyze so they can identify your infection.

See how similar they look?
But there are several and you need an expert to identify the particular variant you have and give you the proper removal tool and manual followup instructions.
