Sounds like you may have the "checkin.b" trojan. You can test for this by
looking for the files TTPS.EXE, OWMNGR.EXE, UPDATE.EXE, SYSREQ.EXE, OR
SBSRCH.DLL on your system. You have been had if you find these files.
Essentially, the trojan bypasses firewall protection by adding a covert
plug-in to IE and having the "infected" client request and then run
executable content that it obtains from any one of several servers on the
Internet. The downloaded executable content will run in the context of the
logged user.
