Final Approach
I have a virus. The noticable effect is slow operation of the laptop, and when operating certain programs (like Firefox) there is an audible message. "You have a problem. You have an opportunity" and then a little later, "go ahead and click on it. I dare you!" These are approximate transcriptions of the voice output.
I don't know how long I have had this virus. My normal mode on this computer is with the sound switched off. But it has been slow for a while.
The laptop is a Dell PC clone. I'm running XP Pro and Firefox 3.6.8. I have AVG Free 9.0.851 with an up-to-date database, and it finds nothing.
Hints on chasing this one down will be appreciated!

ps: Turning the audio off again is not a good solution!
