Hi friends,
I have encountered with strange virus.

My whole computers Icons are replaced with small image of Red coloured Lord
ganesha's head.

Also, whenever I click on any application programme icon, I get message dialog box"there is no disk in drive J.Please insert disk in drive J:spoclsv.exe"
with options: "cancel" "try again" & "continue".

I will be thankful to you if you tell me how to remove it..

its not a virus but a possible attack of a malware/ad-ware/spyware. Use Spybot search and destroy and scan ur system.. remove any threts found.

Use 'ESET smart security' trial version, u'll get rid of this malware, spyware, virus (whatever..), it's more effective than most of the antiviruses I've tried.
