AntiSpyStorm

I had AntiSpyStorm (a virus) on my computer. I was able to remove it except for
one problem. When the computer boots up and after the user selection, it still has
that awful black & red screen notice that says "your computer is infected....."
I checked for the virus again, and it is gone. How can I get rid of this screen?
If I try to change it in properties, it is labeled default with an internet explorer
icon next to it and it's labeled "default". I have a new installation of anti virus
software, but it doesn't see this problem.
Any ideas?
Thanks,

You haven't gotten the infection cleaned up completely, if you still have issues.
Uninstalling from A/R is only the beginning. It requires special removal tools.
Register and post on one of these malware support forums....
MalWare Removal Forums
OR, register and post on TechGuy forum, with a description of your problem. They'll
let you know what steps to take. Post Only on one forum. Good luck.

Tip: To help prevent future malware infections, Stop using IE as your main
browser. Switch to a more secure, less malware prone browser as your main browser.
IE is extremely vulnerable to malware infections.
Firefox and Opera are recommended alternatives by security experts. Additionally,
use a HOSTS file. See the link below for more info.

Are you having an identity crisis lately?" :)
There's nothing to learn from someone who already agrees with you.
