javaw32: "you are infected with a botnet"

[rommie]

This comes up upon startup, and the process behind it is javaw32.exe. I've killed the process, but googling comes up with pretty much only info in other languages about the actual error message. I'm running ad-aware and the spybot s&d resident - run hijackthis + adaware + spybot to remove it? I doubt I'm "infected" with a botnet, the message just looked a little too fake to be true (plus it came from the java proces).

Run those apps in safemode and see if it removes the issue.

I'd go with Malware-bytes Antimalware http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php it catches more stuff than either of those others and I've never seen it screw anything up system wise either. Update it and then run a full scan in safe mode
