I had been banging my head trying to get rid of malware that got in my flash from a quick visit to a net-cafe (!$#%*.
I also suggets everyone use a very good anti-malware stand alone. After Flash Disinfector I ran Prevx 3.0 which found 3 more that the original Flash infection had blocked. Prevx now runs constantly – good prog!
