Ok, tonight while browsing B3D with nothing else open I got a popup window claiming that I had agreed to installing some sort of web search and accelerator crap which was obviously malicious junk. I closed it out, then Norton detected the virus winupdt.exe. I opened task manager and low and behold found a process called toc_0008.exe running. I shut it down and another poped up. I had to disconnect my ethernet cable to stop it. I then cleaned my computer, reconnected it and everything was fine. About an hour later I visited B3D again and again it happened, almost immediately. So far Firefox is immune but not IE, at least not IE SP1.
This is a pretty serious virus guys, it tries to gain access to your computer through an IRC server via a backdoor in the windows remote procedure call. Yes I know what I'm doing, no it was not from another site and no I did not have anything installed beforehand. I'm quite anal about having a clean computer.
