Hi:

My teenage son's pc has this

WIN32.hlkeypunkbuster.cookiemonster

He said when he start up any program, a cookie monster comes on the screen and says:
give me a cookie;

He cannot see anything but this cookie monster going around the screen.

My son has WinxpPro.

He said he does not know how it comes into his pc when I suggested perhaps it is during his downloading movies. He said he tries reformatting the hard drive but it does not seem to want to leave.

Anyone sees this virus before? and any guidances on how to remove it?

Thank you very much for helping.

Riley
