About 3 days ago, I started getting about 20 "bounced" email notices a day, for stuff I did not send. All in German language, all to .de or .eu addresses. I don't know anyone with a .eu or .de address.
Anyway, I updated to the latest AVG antivirus, and full scanned. It found nothing.
I updated Malwarebytes and scanned. It found a trojan. It cleaned it, or so it says. I rescanned the next day, and it found nothing, but the notices keep coming.
I installed Super anti spyware and scanned, It found some cookies, but nothing else. The notices keep coming.
I updated and run Spybot S&D, scanned, and found nothing. Also "immunized" but the notices keep coming.
I'm just about resigned to formatting and reloading. I run XP pro with sp3.
Whatever it takes to get this clean is what I need. I do my own taxes on this machine, and in no way do I want to risk sending all my personal info to who knows where.
Thanks in advance for any help.
