Suspected Virus (1 Viewer)

[Korn]

I think i may have a virus on my pc or something, as i have gotten warnings from Norton Antivirus and Microsoft.
Nortons Antivirus says this:
"Alert: Malicious script detected
Object FileSystem Object
Activity GetFolder
Your computer is halted and needs to do something about this scipt
File BackWeb-8876480.exe
What do you want to do?"

I have also gotten a medium risk warning from Internet Security saying BackWeb-8876480.exe is attempting to access the internet using one or more unrecognised modules.
Program C:\Program Files\Logitech\Desktop Messenger\8876480\Program\BackWeb-8876480.exe
Module C:\Program Files\Norton Antivirus\SCRIPTUI.DLL

Micrsoft Data Execution Prevention says this:
To help protect your computer, Windows has closed this program
Name: Run a DLL as an App
Publisher: Microsoft Corporation

Right click on the My Computer icon (if you don't know how to get to it, go to your C drive and go up a couple of folder levelsor alternatively click Start and right click on the My Computer there.
Anyway go to Properties and the System Restore tab is there. Check to make sure it's on. Then you can proceed to make a System Restore point under Start -> Programs -> Accessories -> System Tools -> System Restore
